Zechariah 11:6-8

New American Standard Bible

⁶ For I will ^(A)no longer have compassion for the inhabitants of the land,” declares the Lord; “but behold, I will ^(B)let the people fall, each into another’s ^[a]power and into the ^[b]power of his king; and they will crush the land, and I will ^(C)not rescue them from their ^[c]power.”

⁷ So I ^(D)pastured the flock doomed to slaughter, ^[d]therefore also the ^(E)afflicted of the flock. And I took for myself two ^(F)staffs: the one I called ^[e](G)Favor, and the other I called ^(H)Union; so I pastured the flock. ⁸ Then I did away with the three shepherds in ^(I)one month, for my soul was impatient with them, and their soul also ^[f]was tired of me.
