Zechariah 11:15-17
Lexham English Bible
15 And Yahweh said to me, “Take again the implements[a] of a foolish shepherd. 16 For look, I am raising up a shepherd in the land who will not attend to the ones that are perishing; he will not seek the young man,[b] he will not heal the ones that are crushed and he will not sustain the healthy ones; he will devour the flesh of the fattened ones[c] and tear apart even their hoofs.
17 “Woe, my worthless shepherd
who deserts the flock![d]
May a sword fall on his arm
and on his right eye![e]
May his arm wither completely
and his right eye[f] be utterly blinded!”

American Standard Version
15 And Jehovah said unto me, Take unto thee yet again the instruments of a foolish shepherd. 16 For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not [a]visit those that are [b]cut off, neither will seek [c]those that are scattered, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which [d]is sound; but he will eat the flesh of the fat sheep, and will tear their hoofs in pieces. 17 Woe to the worthless shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
