33. Those who have been killed by the Lord at that time will be scattered from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be mourned over, gathered up, or buried. Their dead bodies will lie scattered over the ground like manure.
34. Wail and cry out in anguish, you rulers!Roll in the dust, you who shepherd flocks of people!The time for you to be slaughtered has come.You will lie scattered and fallen like broken pieces of fine pottery.
35. The leaders will not be able to run away and hide.The shepherds of the flocks will not be able to escape.
36. Listen to the cries of anguish of the leaders.Listen to the wails of the shepherds of the flocks.They are wailing because the Lordis about to destroy their lands.
37. Their peaceful dwelling places will be laid wasteby the fierce anger of the Lord.
38. The Lord is like a lion who has left his lair.So their lands will certainly be laid wasteby the warfare of the oppressive nationand by the fierce anger of the Lord.”
