because of the fierce anger of the Lord.

Like a lion he has left his lair,

for their land has become a waste

because of the sword of the oppressor,

and because of his fierce anger.”

and because of the Lord’s fierce anger.

for their land has become a desolation

because of the sword of the oppressor,

because of his burning anger.

NLTNew Living Translation

Peaceful meadows will be turned into a wasteland

by the Lord’s fierce anger.

He has left his den like a strong lion seeking its prey,

and their land will be made desolate

by the sword of the enemy

and the Lord’s fierce anger.

And the peaceful settlements are devastated

because of the burning anger of Yahweh.

He has left his den like a lion,

for their land has become a horror,

because of the anger of the oppressors,

and because of his burning anger.”
