Zechariah 11:8-10

New International Version

⁸ In one month I got rid of the three shepherds.

The flock detested^(A) me, and I grew weary of them ⁹ and said, “I will not be your shepherd. Let the dying die, and the perishing perish.^(B) Let those who are left eat^(C) one another’s flesh.”

¹⁰ Then I took my staff called Favor^(D) and broke it, revoking^(E) the covenant I had made with all the nations.
