Zechariah 11:9-13. Broken Covenant. 12 March 2025

Zec 11:9 I then said,
'I am not going to pasture you any more;
the one doomed to die can die;
the one doomed to perish can perish;
and the rest can devour one another.'
10 I then took my staff, 'Goodwill',
and broke it in half,
to break my covenant,
which I had made with all the peoples.
11 When it was broken,
that day the sheep-dealers, who were watching me,
realized that this had been a word of Yahweh.
12 I then said to them,
'If you see fit, give me my wages;
if not, never mind.'
So they weighed out my wages:
thirty shekels of silver.
13 Yahweh said to me,
'Throw it to the smelter,
this princely sum at which they have valued me!'
Taking the thirty shekels of silver,
I threw them into the Temple of Yahweh,<
for the smelter.
