The burden of the beasts of the south: Into the land of distress and constraint. The lioness and the lion are from them; the viper and fiery flying serpent. They lift up their riches on the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures on the humps of camels, to a people who cannot profit them.
And I will set apart the destroyers against you, each man with his weapons; and they will cut down the best of your cedars and make them fall into the fire.
Because I will cut off the righteous one and the wicked one from you, therefore, My sword shall go out from its sheath against all flesh, from the Negeb to the north.
