Isaiah 31:4-6
Holman Christian Standard Bible
4 For this is what the Lord said to me:
As a lion or young lion growls over its prey(A)
when a band of shepherds is called out against it,
and is not terrified by their shouting
or subdued by their noise,
so the Lord of Hosts will come down
to fight on Mount Zion
and on its hill.(B)
5 Like hovering birds,
so the Lord of Hosts will protect Jerusalem(C)—
by protecting it, He will rescue it,
by sparing it, He will deliver it.
6 Return to the One the Israelites have greatly rebelled against.(D)

Isaiah 31:4-6
New International Version
4 This is what the Lord says to me:
“As a lion(A) growls,
a great lion over its prey—
and though a whole band of shepherds(B)
is called together against it,
it is not frightened by their shouts
or disturbed by their clamor(C)—
so the Lord Almighty will come down(D)
to do battle on Mount Zion and on its heights.
5 Like birds hovering(E) overhead,
the Lord Almighty will shield(F) Jerusalem;
he will shield it and deliver(G) it,
he will ‘pass over’(H) it and will rescue it.”
6 Return,(I) you Israelites, to the One you have so greatly revolted(J) against.
