38  Like a lion he has left his lair,

for their land has become a waste

^kbecause of the sword of the oppressor,

and because of his fierce anger.”

16  He made many stumble, and they fell,

and they said one to another,

‘Arise, and let us go back to our own people

and to the land of our birth,

^tbecause of the sword of the oppressor.’
