4Thus says Yahweh my God: Shepherd the flock for slaughter.

5whose buyers slaughter them and are not held guilty, and whose sellers say, “Blessed be Yahweh, for I have become rich,” and their shepherds have no compassion on them.

6For I will no longer have compassion on the inhabitants of the land, declares Yahweh. Behold, I am handing over the people, each into the hand of his neighbor and into the hand of his king, and they will crush the land, and I will not deliver it from their hand.
