8And in one month I dismissed three shepherds. My soul grew impatient with the flock, and their souls also detested me.
9Then I said, “I will no longer shepherd you. Let the dying die, and the perishing perish; and let those who remain devour one another’s flesh.”
10Next I took my staff called Favor and cut it in two, revoking the covenant I had made with all the nations.
— Zechariah 11:8-10
