    who gathers the outcasts of Israel,
I will gather others to them

The Corruption of Israel’s Rulers

9 All you wild animals,
    all you wild animals in the forest, come to devour!

    they are all without knowledge;
they are all silent dogs
    that cannot bark;
dreaming, lying down,
    loving to slumber.
