Zechariah 11:5

Israel's Shepherds: Good And Bad

⁴ Thus said Jehovah my God: 'Feed the flock of the slaughter, ⁵ Whose buyers slay them, and are not guilty, And their sellers say, Blessed is Jehovah, And I am rich, And their shepherds have no pity on them. ⁶ For I have pity no more on inhabitants of the land, An affirmation of Jehovah, And lo, I am causing man to come forth, Each into the hand of his neighbour, And into the hand of his king, And they have beaten down the land, And I do not deliver out of their hand.'
