19“Watch this: Like a lion coming up
from the thick jungle of the Jordan
Looking for prey in the mountain pastures,
I will come upon Edom and pounce.
I’ll take my pick of the flock—and who’s to stop me?
The shepherds of Edom are helpless before me.”

“Like a lion coming up from Jordan’s thickets
to a rich pastureland,

And what shepherd can stand against me?”

I will come like a lion from the thickets of the Jordan,
leaping on the sheep in the pasture.

What ruler can oppose my will?”

Look, like a lion he comes up from the thickets of the Jordan
to a pastureland by a constantly flowing stream.
So I will chase him away hurriedly from it.
And whoever is chosen I will appoint over it.
For who is like me, and who can summon me?
And who is this, the shepherd who can stand before me?”

Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan
Against the habitation of the strong:
But I will suddenly make him run away from her:
And who is a chosen man, that I may appoint over her?
For who is like me? and who will appoint me the time?
And who is that shepherd that will stand before me?
