Isaiah 31:4-6

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁴This is what the Lord said to me:

A lion, even a young lion, growls over its prey
when a crowd of shepherds is called to fight it.
It isn’t frightened by their voices
or disturbed by the noise they make.
So the Lord of Armies will come to fight for
Mount Zion and its hill.
⁵The Lord of Armies will defend Jerusalem like a hovering bird.
He will defend it and rescue it.
He will pass over it and protect it.
⁶You people of Israel, return to the one
whom you have so violently rebelled against.
