Zechariah 11:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 And it was broken in that day: and so the [a]poor of the sheep that waited upon me, knew that it was the word of the Lord.
12 And I said unto them, If ye think it good, give me [b]my wages: and if no, leave off: so they weighed for my wages thirty pieces of silver.
13 And the Lord said unto me, Cast it unto the [c]potter: a goodly price, that I was valued at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the Lord.
