Zechariah 11:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 Then brake I mine other staff: even the Bands, that I might dissolve the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
15 And the Lord said unto me, Take to thee yet [a]the instruments of a foolish shepherd.
16 For lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not look for the thing that is lost, nor seek the tender lambs, nor heal that that is hurt, nor feed that that [b]standeth up, but he shall eat flesh of the fat, and tear their claws in pieces.
