8And I cut off the three shepherds in one month, and my soul is grieved with them, and also their soul hath abhorred me.
9And I say, `I do not feed you, the dying, let die; and the cut off, let be cut off; and the remaining ones, let each eat the flesh of its neighbour.`
10And I take My staff Pleasantness, and cut it asunder, to make void My covenant that I had made with all the peoples:
11and it is broken in that day, and know well do the afflicted of the flock who are observing me, that it [is] a word of Jehovah.
12And I say unto them: `If good in your eyes, give my hire, and if not, forbear;` and they weigh out my hire -- thirty silverlings.
13And Jehovah saith unto me, `Cast it unto the potter;` the goodly price that I have been prized at by them, and I take the thirty silverlings, and cast them [to] the house of Jehovah, unto the potter.
14And I cut asunder my second staff, Bands, to break the unity between Judah and Israel.
