ISRAEL’S SHEPHERDS: GOOD AND BAD

11 Open your gates, Lebanon,

and fire will consume your cedars.o

2 Wail, cypress,p for the cedar has fallen;

the glorious trees are destroyed!

Wail, oaks of Bashan,q

for the stately forest has fallen!

3 Listen to the wailr of the shepherds,s

for their glory is destroyed.

Listen to the roar of young lions,t

for the thickets of the Jordanu areG destroyed.
