Zechariah 11:7
And I will feed the flock of slaughter, even you, O poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.
KJV
Et pascam pecus occisionis propter hoc, o pauperes gregis ! et assumpsi mihi duas virgas : unam vocavi Decorem, et alteram vocavi Funiculum : et pavi gregem.
Vulgate
καὶ ποιμανῶ τὰ πρόβατα τῆς σφαγῆς εἰς τὴν Χαναανῖτιν· καὶ λήμψομαι ἐμαυτῷ δύο ῥάβδους, τὴν μὲν μίαν ἐκάλεσα Κάλλος, καὶ τὴν ἑτέραν ἐκάλεσα Σχοίνισμα, καὶ ποιμανῶ τὰ πρόβατα.
LXX
So I fed the flock of slaughter, verily the poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.
