3  ^zConsider and answer me, O Lord my God;

^alight up my eyes, lest ^bI sleep the sleep of death,

39  ^hWhile they are inflamed ^hI will prepare them a feast

and ⁱmake them drunk, that they may become merry,

ⁱthen sleep a perpetual sleep

and not wake, declares the Lord.

18  Your shepherds ^bare asleep,

O king of Assyria;

^cyour nobles slumber.

Your people ^dare scattered on the mountains

with none to gather them.
