51:38The Babylonians are all like lions roaring for prey.
They are like lion cubs growling for something to eat.84
Footnotes
- 84 Heb “They [the Babylonians] all roar like lions. They growl like the cubs of lions.” For the usage of יַחְדָו (yakhdav) meaning “all” see Isa 10:8; 18:6; 41:20. The translation strives to convey in clear terms what is the generally accepted meaning of the simile (cf., e.g., J. Bright, Jeremiah [], 358, and J. A. Thompson, Jeremiah [], ).
