I myself fed the slaughter sheep, and poor flock verily; and took unto me two staffs: the one I called 'Loving Meekness,' the other I called 'Woe.' And so I kept the sheep. Three shepherds destroyed I in one month, for I might not away with them, neither had they any delight in me. Then said I, "I will feed you no more! The thing that dieth, let it die: and that will perish, let it perish. And let the remnant eat, every one the flesh of his neighbour." read more.
I took also my Loving Meek staff, and brake it, that I might disannul the covenant, which I made with all people. And so it was broken in that day. Then the poor simple sheep that had a respect unto me, knew thereby that it was the word of the LORD. And I said unto them, "If ye think it good, bring hither my price: if no, then leave." So they weighed down thirty silver pens, the value that I was prized at. And the LORD said unto me, "Cast it unto the potter" - a goodly price for me to be valued at of them. And I took the thirty silver pens, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD. Then brake I my other staff also, namely Woe, that I might loose the brotherhood betwixt Judah and Israel.
