And they will all be left for birds of prey that live on the mountains and for wild animals. Birds of prey will pass the summer feeding on them, and all the wild animals will pass the winter feeding on them.

Anguish will visit them as it will visit Egypt. Watch out! It's coming!'"

You march through the land in righteous indignation; you tread down the nations in anger.
