Zech 11:2 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.

qôl yiləlaṯ hārō‘îm kî šuddəḏāh ’addarətām qôl ša’ăg̱aṯ kəp̱îrîm kî šuddaḏ gə’ôn hayyarədēn

Zech 11:3 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.

kōh ’āmar yəhwāh ’ĕlōhāy rə‘ēh ’eṯ-ṣō’n hahărēg̱āh

Zech 11:4 Thus saith the LORD my God; Feed the flock of the slaughter;

’ăšer qōnêhen yahărəg̱un wəlō’ ye’əšāmû ûmōḵərêhen yō’mar bārûḵ yəhwāh wa’‘əšir wərō‘êhem lō’ yaḥəmôl ‘ălêhen

Zech 11:5 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.

kî lō’ ’eḥəmôl ‘ôḏ ‘al-yōšəḇê hā’āreṣ nə’um-yəhwāh wəhinnēh ’ānōḵî maməṣî’ ’eṯ-hā’āḏām ’îš bəyaḏ-rē‘ēhû ûḇəyaḏ maləkô wəḵittəṯû ’eṯ-hā’āreṣ wəlō’ ’aṣṣîl miyyāḏām

Zech 11:6 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.

wā’erə‘eh ’eṯ-ṣō’n hahărēg̱āh lāḵēn ‘ăniyyê haṣṣō’n wā’eqqaḥ-lî šənê maqəlôṯ lə’aḥaḏ qārā’ṯî nō‘am ûlə’aḥaḏ qārā’ṯî ḥōḇəlîm wā’erə‘eh ’eṯ-haṣṣō’n

Zech 11:7 And I will feed the flock of slaughter, even you, O poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.

wā’aḵəḥiḏ ’eṯ-šəlōšeṯ hārō‘îm bəyeraḥ ’eḥāḏ wattiqəṣar nap̱əšî bāhem wəg̱am-nap̱əšām bāḥălāh ḇî

Zech 11:8 Three shepherds also I cut off in one month; and my soul lothed them, and their soul also abhorred me.

wā’ōmar lō’ ’erə‘eh ’eṯəḵem hammēṯāh ṯāmûṯ wəhanniḵəḥeḏeṯ tikkāḥēḏ wəhannišə’ārôṯ tō’ḵalənāh ’iššāh ’eṯ-bəśar rə‘ûṯāhh

Zech 11:9 Then said I, I will not feed you: that that dieth, let it die; and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest eat every one the flesh of another.

wā’eqqaḥ ’eṯ-maqəlî ’eṯ-nō‘am wā’eg̱əda‘ ’ōṯô ləhāp̱êr ’eṯ-bərîṯî ’ăšer kārattî ’eṯ-kāl-hā‘ammîm

Zech 11:10 And I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people.

wattup̱ar bayyôm hahû’ wayyēḏə‘û ḵēn ‘ăniyyê haṣṣō’n haššōmərîm ’ōṯî kî ḏəḇar-yəhwāh hû’

Zech 11:11 And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it was the word of the LORD.

wā’ōmar ’ălêhem ’im-ṭôḇ bə‘ênêḵem hāḇû śəḵārî wə’im-lō’ ḥăḏālû wayyišəqəlû ’eṯ-śəḵārî šəlōšîm kāsep̱

Zech 11:12 And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver.

wayyō’mer yəhwāh ’ēlay hašəlîḵēhû ’el-hayyôṣēr ’eḏer hayəqār ’ăšer yāqarətî mē‘ălêhem wā’eqəḥāh šəlōšîm hakkesep̱ wā’ašəlîḵ ’ōṯô bêṯ yəhwāh ’el-hayyôṣēr

Zech 11:13 And the LORD said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD.

wā’eg̱əda‘ ’eṯ-maqəlî haššēnî ’ēṯ haḥōḇəlîm ləhāp̱ēr ’eṯ-hā’aḥăwāh bên yəhûḏāh ûḇên yiśərā’ēl

Zech 11:14 Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

wayyō’mer yəhwāh ’ēlāy ‘ôḏ qaḥ-ləḵā kəlî rō‘eh ’ĕwilî

Zech 11:15 And the LORD said unto me, Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.

kî hinnēh-’ānōḵî mēqîm rō‘eh bā’āreṣ hanniḵəḥāḏôṯ lō’-yip̱əqōḏ hanna‘ar lō’-yəḇaqqēš wəhannišəbereṯ lō’ yərappē’ hanniṣṣāḇāh lō’ yəḵaləkēl ûḇəśar habbərî’āh yō’ḵal ûp̱arəsêhen yəp̱ārēq

Zech 11:16 For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not visit those that be cut off, neither shall seek the young one, nor heal that that is broken, nor feed that that standeth still: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear their claws in pieces.

hôy rō‘î hā’ĕlîl ‘ōzəḇî haṣṣō’n ḥereḇ ‘al-zərô‘ô wə‘al-‘ên yəmînô zərō‘ô yāḇôš tîḇāš wə‘ên yəmînô kāhōh ṯiḵəheh

Zech 11:17 Woe to the idol shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
