The Message
Zechariah 11:9-11
The Message
9 And then I got tired of the sheep and said, “I’ve had it with you—no more shepherding from me. If you die, you die; if you’re attacked, you’re attacked. Whoever survives can eat what’s left.”
10-11 Then I took the staff named Lovely and broke it across my knee, breaking the beautiful covenant I had made with all the peoples. In one stroke, both staff and covenant were broken. The money-hungry owners saw me do it and knew God was behind it.

Zechariah 11:9-11
New International Version
9 and said, “I will not be your shepherd. Let the dying die, and the perishing perish.(A) Let those who are left eat(B) one another’s flesh.”
10 Then I took my staff called Favor(C) and broke it, revoking(D) the covenant I had made with all the nations. 11 It was revoked on that day, and so the oppressed of the flock who were watching me knew it was the word of the Lord.
