Zechariah 11

12 I said to them, "If it seems good to you, give me my wages; but if not, do not." So they weighed out *11:12 Since the type of coin is not stated, shekels can be assumed. The shekel was the standard wage for a day of labor, and the payment was weighed because the shekel was actually a unit of weight.thirty pieces of silver as my wages. 13 *11:13 At this point the pre-incarnate Christ intervenes and prophetically refers to the payment given by the religious leaders to Judas for his betrayal (Matt 26:15).Then the Lord said to me, "Throw it to the potter [as if to the dogs]—that magnificent sum at which I am valued by them!" So I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them to the potter in the house of the Lord. [Matt 26:14, 15; 27:3-10]
