Zechariah 13:6-8

International Children’s Bible

⁷ “Sword, hit the shepherd.
    Attack the man who is my friend,”
    says the Lord of heaven’s armies.
“Kill the shepherd,
    and the sheep will scatter.
    I will punish the little ones.”
⁸ The Lord says, “Two-thirds of the people
    through all the land will die.
    And one-third will be left.
