RF ZEC 11:1 Israel's Song of Victory.
Open your doors, O! Lebanon,
That the fire may devour your cedars.
RF ZEC 11:2 Howl, you Pines!
For the Cedars have fallen;
Because their splendour is gone!
Yell, you Oaks of Bashan!
For the guarded forest has fallen,
RF ZEC 11:3 The wail of the shepherds is sounding,
Because their flocks are spoiled.
The voice of the young lions roaring,
For the Pride of Jordan has gone!
RF ZEC 11:4 The Doom of the Faithless Shepherds.
Thus says the EVER-LIVING GOD! "Feed the flock for slaughter,
RF ZEC 11:5 whose Guardians murder and do not consider themselves guilty, and whose seller says, 'Thank the LORD! I am rich!' for their shepherds pity them not!
RF ZEC 11:6 Therefore I will no more pity the inhabitants of the country," says the EVER-LIVING, "but I will abandon the men each to the hand of his neighbour, and into the hand of his leader, and they shall harry the land, and I will not deliver it from their hands."
RF ZEC 11:7 I consequently fed the flock for Slaughter,—who were miserable sheep,—and took myself two wands.—I called one "Beauty," and the other I called "Bonds,"—and pastured the sheep.
RF ZEC 11:8 But I destroyed one of the sheep every month,—for my life was tired of them, and their lives also were hateful to me.
RF ZEC 11:9 I then said, "I will not attend to you,—let the dying die,—and that for slaughter let it be slaughtered and let the rest devour—each the flesh of the other!
RF ZEC 11:10 So I took my staff "Beauty" and cut it in two, to break by that the Treaty I had made with all the People,
RF ZEC 11:11 and it was broken that same day, and thus the poor of the flock who kept with me knew that it was the command of the EVER-LIVING.
RF ZEC 11:12 Then I said to them, "If it is good in your opinion, pay me my wages; but if not, refuse." They therefore weighed my wages—Thirty pieces of silver!
RF ZEC 11:13 But the LORD commanded me to cast into the Treasury, the splendid valuation at which I was valued by them!—So I took the thirty pieces of silver, and flung them into the House of the EVER-LIVING at the Treasury
RF ZEC 11:14 Then I cut my staff "Bonds" in two, to break the other Treaty with Judah and Israel.—
RF ZEC 11:15 The EVER-LIVING, however, again said to me, "Take for yourself again the requisites of a simple shepherd,—
RF ZEC 11:16 for be sure I will now raise up a destructive Shepherd, who will not visit the young, nor seek the wounded, nor care for the sick, nor provide fodder;—but will eat the flesh of the fat, and break their hoofs"
RF ZEC 11:17 Woe to that worthless Shepherd who forgets the flock! The Sword shall assail his right arm and eye;—his arm shall wither; and his right eye be totally blind!
