Zechariah 11:7

Israel's Shepherds: Good And Bad

⁶ Surely I will have pity no longer upon the inhabitants of the earth, Declareth Yahweh, - Therefore lo! I am delivering up mankind, every man into the hand of his neighbour, and into the hand of his king, and they will crush the earth, nor will I deliver out of their hand. ⁷ So I tended the flock doomed to slaughter, for the sheep-merchants, - and took unto me two staves, the one, I called Grace, and, the other, I called Union, thus I tended the sheep, ⁸ And I sent off three shepherds, in one month, - for impatient was my soul with them, moreover also, their soul, felt a loathing against me.
