2 Wail, you juniper, for the cedar has fallen;

the stately trees are ruined!

Wail, oaks of Bashan;

the dense forest has been cut down!

2 Howl, fir tree; for the cedar is fallen; because the mighty are spoiled:

Howl, O ye oaks of Bashan; for the forest of the vintage is come down.

2 Weep, you cypress trees, for all the ruined cedars;

the most majestic ones have fallen.

Weep, you oaks of Bashan,

for the thick forests have been cut down.

2 Wail, O cypress, for the cedar has fallen,

Because the mighty trees are ruined.

Wail, O oaks of Bashan,

For the thick forest has come down.

2 Cry, pine trees, because the cedar has fallen,

because the tall trees are ruined.

Cry, oaks in Bashan,

because the mighty forest has been cut down.

2 Wail, O fir-tree, for the cedar is fallen, because the goodly ones are destroyed: wail, O ye oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest is come down.

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

2 Cry, cypress trees, 

because the cedars have fallen 

and the stately trees have been destroyed. 

Cry, oak trees of Bashan, 

because your dense forest has fallen down. 

2 Wail, cypress, for the cedar has fallen;

the glorious trees are destroyed!

Wail, oaks of Bashan,

for the stately forest has fallen!

for the glorious trees are ruined!

Wail, oaks of Bashan,

for the thick forest has been felled!

2 Wail, O juniper, for the cedar has fallen,

for the magnificent trees are ruined!

Wail, oaks of Bashan,

for the impenetrable forest has come down!

2 Pine trees, cry out!

The cedar trees have fallen down.

The majestic trees are destroyed.

Cry out, you oak trees of Bashan!

The thick forest has been cut down.

2 Wail, O cypress, for the cedar has fallen,

Because the glorious trees have been destroyed;

Wail, O oaks of Bashan,

For the impenetrable forest has come down.
