00:00.000 --> 00:05.060
Chapter eleven Open thy doors,
O Lebanon, that the fire may devour thy

00:05.060 --> 00:05.540
cedars.

00:06.540 --> 00:11.040
Howl, fir-tree, for the cedar is fallen,
because the mighty are spoiled.

00:11.880 --> 00:16.340
Howl, all ye oaks of Bashan, for the
forest of the vintage is come down.

00:18.040 --> 00:21.700
There is a voice of the howling of the
shepherds, for their glory is spoiled.

00:22.300 --> 00:26.400
A voice of the roaring of young lions,
for the pride of Jordan is spoiled.

00:27.160 --> 00:32.200
Thus saith the Lord my God, feed the flock
of the slaughter, whose possessors slay

00:32.200 --> 00:34.180
them, and hold themselves not guilty.

00:34.980 --> 00:38.600
And they that sell them say, Blessed be
the Lord, for I am rich.

00:39.280 --> 00:41.000
And their own shepherds pity them not.

00:41.800 --> 00:45.680
For I will no more pity the inhabitants of
the land, saith the Lord.

00:46.120 --> 00:50.180
But lo, I will deliver the men,
every one, into his neighbour's hand,

00:50.380 --> 00:51.880
and into the hand of his king.

00:52.400 --> 00:55.640
And they shall smite the land,
and out of their hand I will not deliver

00:55.640 --> 00:55.880
them.

00:56.600 --> 01:00.040
And I will feed the flock of slaughter,
even you, O poor of the flock.

01:00.480 --> 01:05.740
And I took unto me two staves,
the one I called Beauty, and the other I

01:05.740 --> 01:06.500
called Bands.

01:06.940 --> 01:08.140
And I fed the flock.

01:08.940 --> 01:12.880
Three shepherds also I cut off in one
month, and my soul loathed them,

01:13.180 --> 01:14.900
and their soul also abhorred me.

01:15.600 --> 01:17.920
Then said I, I will not feed you.

01:18.600 --> 01:20.260
That that dieth, let it die.

01:20.980 --> 01:24.040
And that that is to be cut off,
let it be cut off.

01:24.560 --> 01:27.360
And let the rest eat every one the flesh
of another.

01:28.560 --> 01:32.860
And I took my staff, even Beauty,
and cut it asunder, that I might break my

01:32.860 --> 01:34.660
covenant which I had made with all the
people.

01:35.300 --> 01:36.660
And it was broken in that day.

01:37.180 --> 01:41.000
And so the poor of the flock that waited
upon me knew that it was the word of the

01:41.000 --> 01:41.300
Lord.

01:42.000 --> 01:47.240
And I said unto them, If ye think good,
give me my price, and if not, forbear.

01:47.840 --> 01:50.220
So they weighed for my price thirty pieces
of silver.

01:50.600 --> 01:55.880
And the Lord said unto me, Cast it unto
the potter, a goodly price that I was

01:55.880 --> 01:56.820
prized at of them.

01:57.440 --> 02:00.880
And I took the thirty pieces of silver,
and cast them to the potter in the house

02:00.880 --> 02:01.420
of the Lord.

02:02.260 --> 02:06.420
Then I cut asunder mine other staff,
even Bands, that I might break the

02:06.420 --> 02:08.180
brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

02:08.720 --> 02:13.120
And the Lord said unto me, Take unto thee
yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.

02:13.740 --> 02:17.180
For lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the
land which shall not visit those that be

02:17.180 --> 02:17.660
cut off.

02:18.460 --> 02:22.260
Neither shall seek the young one,
nor heal that that is broken, nor feed

02:22.260 --> 02:23.460
that that standeth still.

02:24.000 --> 02:27.280
But he shall eat the flesh of the fat,
and tear their claws in pieces.

02:28.380 --> 02:30.460
Woe to the idle shepherd that leaveth the
flock!

02:31.160 --> 02:33.920
The sword shall be upon his arm,
and upon his right eye.

02:34.540 --> 02:38.760
His arm shall be clean dried up,
and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
