Zechariah 11:7
King James Version
Translation: KJV
5Whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty: and they that sell them say, Blessed be the Lord; for I am rich: and their own shepherds pity them not.Select Zechariah 11:5
6For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, saith the Lord: but, lo, I will deliver the men every one into his neighbour’s hand, and into the hand of his king: and they shall smite the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them.Select Zechariah 11:6
7And I will feed the flock of slaughter, even you, O poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.Select Zechariah 11:7
8Three shepherds also I cut off in one month; and my soul lothed them, and their soul also abhorred me.Select Zechariah 11:8
9Then said I, I will not feed you: that that dieth, let it die; and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest eat every one the flesh of another.Select Zechariah 11:9
