- 2Howl, cypress, for the cedar is fallen; because the noble ones are spoiled. Howl, ye oaks of Bashan; for the strong forest is come down.

- 12And I said unto them, If ye think good, give [supplied: me] my hire; and if not, forbear. And they weighed for my hire thirty silver-pieces.
- 13And Jehovah said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prized at by them. And I took the thirty silver-pieces, and cast them to the potter in the house of Jehovah.
