Isaiah 5:29-30
International Standard Version
29 With a roar like a lion, they snarl,
and like young lions, they growl;[a]
they seize their prey
and then carry it off,
with no one to rescue.
30 They will roar over it[b] at that time,[c]
like the sea waves roar.
If one surveys the land, watch out!
There’s darkness and distress;
even the daylight is darkened by its clouds.
