“For Yahweh says to me,“As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey,if a multitude of shepherds is called together against him,will not be dismayed at their voice,nor abase himself for their noise,so Yahweh of Armies will come down to fight on Mount Zion and on its heights.”
Isaiah 31:4 (WEB)
Context Reading
2Yet he also is wise, and will bring disaster,and will not call back his words, but will arise against the house of the evildoers,and against the help of those who work iniquity. 3Now the Egyptians are men, and not God;and their horses flesh, and not spirit.When Yahweh stretches out his hand, both he who helps shall stumble,and he who is helped shall fall,and they all shall be consumed together. 4For Yahweh says to me,“As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey,if a multitude of shepherds is called together against him,will not be dismayed at their voice,nor abase himself for their noise,so Yahweh of Armies will come down to fight on Mount Zion and on its heights. 5As birds hovering, so Yahweh of Armies will protect Jerusalem.He will protect and deliver it.He will pass over and preserve it.” 6Return to him from whom you have deeply revolted, children of Israel.
