36 Hark! The outcry of the shepherds,
the wailing of the leaders of the flock!
For Adonai is ravaging their pasture.
37 The peace of the pasture is stifled
because of the fierce anger of Adonai.
38 He has left His lair, like a lion.
For their land has become a waste,
because of the fury of the oppressor
and because of His fierce anger.
