7 And I shepherded the flock doomed to slaughter, even the afflicted of the flock. I took two staffs, one I called Kindness, and the other I called Unity, and I shepherded the flock.
8 And I got rid of three shepherds in one month, for I grew impatient with them, and they also became tired of me.
9 So I said, “I will not shepherd you! The one dying will die, and the one to be destroyed will be destroyed. And the ones remaining, let them devour the flesh of each other.”
10 And I took my staff Kindness and broke it, to break my covenant that I had made with all the peoples.
11 And it was broken on that day. Then the afflicted of the flock, the ones who were watching me, knew that it was the word of Yahweh.
12 And I said to them, “If it seems right to you, give me my wages, but if not, keep them.” And they weighed out my wages, thirty silver shekels.
13 And Yahweh said to me, “Throw it to the potter,” this noble price at which I was valued by them!” So I took the thirty silver shekels and I threw them to the potter in the house of Yahweh.
