Isaiah 31:4-6
Legacy Standard Bible
4 For thus says Yahweh to me,
“As the (A)lion or the young lion growls over its prey,
Against which a multitude of shepherds is called out,
And it will not be dismayed at their voice nor afflicted at their noise,
So will Yahweh of hosts come down to wage (B)war on Mount Zion and on its hill.”
5 Like [a]flying (C)birds so Yahweh of hosts will defend Jerusalem.
He will (D)defend and deliver it;
He will pass over and provide a way of escape.
6 (E)Return to Him against whom [b]you have (F)deeply rebelled, O sons of Israel.

New International Version
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.
