Zechariah 11:5-6

5 ^aThose who buy them slaughter them and go unpunished, and those who sell them say, ‘Blessed be the Lord, ^bI have become rich,’ and their own shepherds have no pity on them. 6 For ^cI 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.”

Matthew 18:33

33 ^dAnd should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?’
