^cand roll in ashes, you lords of the flock,

^fand the wail of the lords of the flock!
For the Lord is laying waste their pasture,

A Call to Repentance

13 ^gPut on sackcloth and lament, ^hO priests;
ⁱwail, O ministers of the altar.
Go in, ^jpass the night in sackcloth,
^kO ministers of my God!
^lBecause grain offering and drink offering
are withheld from the house of your God.

Amos 8:8

8 ^mShall not the land tremble on this account,
and everyone mourn who dwells in it,
ⁿand all of it rise like the Nile,
and be tossed about ^oand sink again, like the Nile of Egypt?”

Zephaniah 1:10

10 “On that day,” declares the Lord,
“a cry will be heard from ^pthe Fish Gate,
^qa wail from ^rthe Second Quarter,
a loud crash from the hills.

Zechariah 11:8

8 In one month ^sI destroyed the three shepherds. But I became impatient with them, and they also detested me.

Zechariah 11:15-17

15 Then the Lord said to me, “Take once more the equipment of ^ta foolish shepherd. 16 For behold, I am raising up in the land a shepherd ^uwho does not care for those being destroyed, or seek the young or heal the maimed or nourish the healthy, but ^vdevours the flesh of the fat ones, tearing off even their hoofs.

17 ^w“Woe to my worthless shepherd,
^xwho deserts the flock!
May the sword strike his arm
and ^yhis right eye!
Let his arm be wholly withered,
his right eye utterly blinded!”

Matthew 15:14

14 Let them alone; ^zthey are blind guides. ^{▼▼Some manuscripts add of the blind} And ^abif the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.”
