An ox knows its owner and a donkey the manger of its master. Israel does not know; my people do not understand.

Does the ax boast against the one who cuts with it, or the saw magnify itself against [the] one who moves it to and fro? {As if a rod should move the one who lifts it}! {As if a staff should lift up that which is not wood}!

And he will cut down the thickets of the forest with the axe, and Lebanon will fall by [the] mighty [one].

Happy [are] you who sow by all waters, who let the foot of the ox and the donkey go free.

I will {put} [the] cedar, acacia, myrtle, and olive oil tree in the wilderness; I will set [the] cypress, elm, and box tree together in the desert

[The] wolf and [the] lamb shall feed like one, and [the] lion shall eat straw like the ox, but dust [shall be] [the] serpent's food. They shall do no evil, and they shall not destroy on all {my holy mountain}," says Yahweh.
