Isaiah 5:28-30

New Catholic Bible

²⁸ Their arrows are sharpened
    and all their bows are bent.
The hoofs of their horses seem like flint,
    and their chariot wheels are like a whirlwind.
²⁹ Their roar is like that of a lion;
    they growl like young lions.
They roar as they seize their prey,
    and no one can prevent them from carrying it off.
³⁰ They will roar over it on that day,
    similar to the roaring of the sea.
And if anyone looks at the land,
    he will behold only darkness and distress,
    with the light fading at the approaching clouds.
