So I became a shepherd of those sheep doomed to be slaughtered by the sheep dealers.[a] And I gave names to the two sticks I used for tending the sheep: One of them was named “Mercy” and the other “Unity.” In less than a month, I became impatient with three shepherds who didn't like me, and I got rid of them.

Then let the others eat one another alive.”
