Zechariah 11:11-17

11It was revoked on that day, and so the oppressed of the flock who were watching me knew it was the word of the LORD .

12I told them, “If you think it best, give me my pay; but if not, keep it.” So they paid me thirty pieces of silver.

13And the LORD said to me, “Throw it to the potter”—the handsome price at which they valued me! So I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them to the potter at the house of the LORD .

14Then I broke my second staff called Union, breaking the family bond between Judah and Israel. 15Then the LORD said to me, “Take again the equipment of a foolish shepherd.

16For I am going to raise up a shepherd over the land who will not care for the lost, or seek the young, or heal the injured, or feed the healthy, but will eat the meat of the choice sheep, tearing off their hooves. 17“Woe to the worthless shepherd, who deserts the flock! May the sword strike his arm and his right eye! May his arm be completely withered, his right eye totally blinded!”
