33  Behold, the Lord God of hosts

will lop the boughs with terrifying power;

the great in height will be hewn down,

and the lofty will be brought low.

34  He will cut down the thickets of the forest with an axe,

and Lebanon will fall by the Majestic One.

2  ^hWail, O cypress, for the cedar has fallen,

for the glorious trees are ruined!

Wail, oaks of Bashan,

for the thick forest has been felled!
