Zechariah 11:7-9

New King James Version

⁷ So I fed the flock for slaughter, ^[a]in particular ^(A)the poor of the flock. I took for myself two staffs: the one I called ^[b]Beauty, and the other I called ^[c]Bonds; and I fed the flock. ⁸ I ^[d]dismissed the three shepherds ^(B)in one month. My soul loathed them, and their soul also abhorred me. ⁹ Then I said, “I will not feed you. ^(C)Let what is dying die, and what is perishing perish. Let those that are left eat each other’s flesh.”
