Zechariah 11:6-8

Christian Standard Bible

⁶ Indeed, I will no longer have compassion on the inhabitants of the land”—this is the Lord’s declaration. “Instead, I will turn everyone over to his neighbor and his king. They will devastate the land, and I will not rescue it from their hand.”^(A)

⁷ So I shepherded the flock intended for slaughter, the oppressed of the flock.^[a] I took two staffs, calling one Favor^(B) and the other Union, and I shepherded the flock. ⁸ In one month I got rid of three shepherds. I became impatient with them, and they also detested me.
