⁶ O God, break their teeth in their mouth, The jaw-teeth of young lions break down, O Jehovah.

⁷ Rise, O Jehovah! save me, my God. Because Thou hast smitten All mine enemies `on' the cheek. The teeth of the wicked Thou hast broken.

¹⁷ And I break the jaw-teeth of the perverse, And from his teeth I cast away prey.

⁸ Yea, the remnant of Jacob hath been among nations, In the midst of many peoples, As a lion among beasts of a forest, As a young lion among ranks of a flock, Which if it hath passed through, Hath both trodden down and hath torn, And there is no deliverer.

¹⁴ For I `am' as a lion to Ephraim, And as a young lion to the house of Judah, I -- I tear and go, I bear away, and there is no deliverer.

²¹ The arm of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, I have broken, And lo, it hath not been bound up to give healing, To put a bandage to bind it, To strengthen it -- to lay hold on the sword.

²² Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I `am' against Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And I have broken his arms, The strong one and the broken one, And have caused the sword to fall out of his hand,

²³ And scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands,

²⁴ And strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And I have given My sword into his hand, And I have broken the arms of Pharaoh, And he hath groaned the groans of a pierced one -- before him.

²⁵ And I have strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And the arms of Pharaoh do fall down, And they have known that I `am' Jehovah, In My giving My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he hath stretched it out toward the land of Egypt.

²⁶ And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands, And they have known that I `am' Jehovah!'

⁴ For thus said Jehovah unto me: `As growl doth the lion and the young lion over his prey, Called against whom is a multitude of shepherds, From their voice he is not affrighted, And from their noise he is not humbled; So come down doth Jehovah of Hosts To war on mount Zion, and on her height.

¹³ On lion and asp thou treadest, Thou trampest young lion and dragon.

¹² His likeness as a lion desirous to tear, As a young lion dwelling in secret places.

¹⁵ Break the arm of the wicked and the evil, Seek out his wickedness, find none;

¹⁰ The roaring of a lion, And the voice of a fierce lion, And teeth of young lions have been broken.

¹¹ An old lion is perishing without prey, And the whelps of the lioness do separate.

²⁴ Lo, the people as a lioness riseth, And as a lion he lifteth himself up, He lieth not down till he eateth prey, And blood of pierced ones doth drink.'
