Zechariah 11:16-17

Context
11:16 Indeed, I am about to raise up a shepherd in the land who will not take heed to the sheep headed to slaughter, will not seek the scattered, and will not heal the injured. 1  Moreover, he will not nourish the one that is healthy but instead will eat the meat of the fat sheep 2  and tear off their hooves.

11:17 Woe to the worthless shepherd

who abandons the flock!

May a sword fall on his arm and his right eye!

May his arm wither completely away,

and his right eye become completely blind!”

1 tn Heb “the broken” (so KJV, NASB; NRSV “the maimed”).

2 tn Heb “the fat [ones].” Cf. ASV “the fat sheep”; NIV “the choice sheep.”
