11:1 Open
your
doors,
O
Lebanon,
that
the
fire
may
devour
your
cedars!
11:2 Wail,
O
cypress,
for
the
cedar
has
fallen,
for
the
glorious
trees
are
ruined!
Wail,
oaks
of
Bashan,
for
the
thick
forest
has
been
felled!
11:3 The
sound
of
the
wail
of
the
shepherds,
for
their
glory
is
ruined!
The
sound
of
the
roar
of
the
lions,
for
the
thicket
of
the
Jordan
is
ruined!
11:4 Thus
said
the
LORD
my
God:
"Become
shepherd
of
the
flock
doomed
to
slaughter.
11:5 Those
who
buy
them
slaughter
them
and
go
unpunished,
and
those
who
sell
them
say,
'Blessed
be
the
LORD,
I
have
become
rich,'
and
their
own
shepherds
have
no
pity
on
them.
11:6 For
I
will
no
longer
have
pity
on
the
inhabitants
of
this
land,
declares
the
LORD.
Behold,
I
will
cause
each
of
them
to
fall
into
the
hand
of
his
neighbor,
and
each
into
the
hand
of
his
king,
and
they
shall
crush
the
land,
and
I
will
deliver
none
from
their
hand."
11:7 So
I
became
the
shepherd
of
the
flock
doomed
to
be
slaughtered
by
the
sheep
traders.
And
I
took
two
staffs,
one
I
named
Favor,
the
other
I
named
Union.
And
I
tended
the
sheep.
11:8 In
one
month
I
destroyed
the
three
shepherds.
But
I
became
impatient
with
them,
and
they
also
detested
me.
11:9 So
I
said,
"I
will
not
be
your
shepherd.
What
is
to
die,
let
it
die.
What
is
to
be
destroyed,
let
it
be
destroyed.
And
let
those
who
are
left
devour
the
flesh
of
one
another."
11:10 And
I
took
my
staff
Favor,
and
I
broke
it,
annulling
the
covenant
that
I
had
made
with
all
the
peoples.
11:11 So
it
was
annulled
on
that
day,
and
the
sheep
traders,
who
were
watching
me,
knew
that
it
was
the
word
of
the
LORD.
11:12 Then
I
said
to
them,
"If
it
seems
good
to
you,
give
me
my
wages;
but
if
not,
keep
them."
And
they
weighed
out
as
my
wages
thirty
pieces
of
silver.
11:13 Then
the
LORD
said
to
me,
"Throw
it
to
the
potter"--the
lordly
price
at
which
I
was
priced
by
them.
So
I
took
the
thirty
pieces
of
silver
and
threw
them
into
the
house
of
the
LORD,
to
the
potter.
11:14 Then
I
broke
my
second
staff
Union,
annulling
the
brotherhood
between
Judah
and
Israel.
11:15 Then
the
LORD
said
to
me,
"Take
once
more
the
equipment
of
a
foolish
shepherd.
11:16 For
behold,
I
am
raising
up
in
the
land
a
shepherd
who
does
not
care
for
those
being
destroyed,
or
seek
the
young
or
heal
the
maimed
or
nourish
the
healthy,
but
devours
the
flesh
of
the
fat
ones,
tearing
off
even
their
hoofs.
11:17 "Woe
to
my
worthless
shepherd,
who
deserts
the
flock!
May
the
sword
strike
his
arm
and
his
right
eye!
Let
his
arm
be
wholly
withered,
his
right
eye
utterly
blinded!"
