Zechariah 11:9-11

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁹ So I said, ‘I will not be your shepherd. What is to die, let it die; what is to be destroyed, let it be destroyed; and let those that are left devour the flesh of one another!’ ¹⁰ I took my staff Favour and broke it, annulling the covenant that I had made with all the peoples. ¹¹ So it was annulled on that day, and the sheep dealers, who were watching me, knew that it was the word of the Lord.
