Zechariah:11:1-6
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Open thy doors ,
O Lebanon ,
that the fire may devour thy cedars .
*
Howl ,
fir tree ;
for the cedar is fallen ;
because the mighty are spoiled :
howl ,
O ye oaks of Bashan ;
for the forest of the vintage is come down .
*
There is a voice of the howling of the shepherds ;
for their glory is spoiled :
a voice of the roaring of young lions ;
for the pride of Jordan is spoiled .
*
Thus saith the LORD my God ;
Feed the flock of the slaughter ;
*
Whose possessors slay them ,
and hold themselves not guilty :
and they that sell them say ,
Blessed be the LORD ;
for I am rich :
and their own shepherds pity them not .
*
For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land ,
saith the LORD :
but ,
lo ,
I will deliver the men every one into his neighbour '
s hand ,
and into the hand of his king :
and they shall smite the land ,
and out of their hand I will not deliver them .
