Bible Comments

Woe to the idol shepherd! to every one of them that are but the images of shepherds, worthless and useless. That leaveth, casts off the care of, the flock, Jeremiah 23:1 Ezekiel 34:2. The sword, of the enemy, shall be upon his arm, to break his strength, and upon his right eye; blind and befool his counsels. His arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened; power and policy shall fail him: such shall be their governors.

Zechariah 11:17

17 Woe to the idol shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
