Isaiah 31:4

New International Version

⁴This 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.

New International Version

²⁶and all the kings of the north,^(A) near and far, one after the other—all the kingdoms^(B) on the face of the earth. And after all of them, the king of Sheshak^[a]^(C) will drink it too.

²⁷“Then tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Drink, get drunk^(D) and vomit, and fall to rise no more because of the sword^(E) I will send among you.’ ²⁸But if they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink^(F), tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty says: You must drink it! ²⁹See, I am beginning to bring disaster^(G) on the city that bears my Name,^(H) and will you indeed go unpunished?^(I) You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword^(J) on all^(K) who live on the earth,^(L) declares the Lord Almighty.’

³⁰“Now prophesy all these words against them and say to them:

“‘The Lord will roar^(M) from on high;
    he will thunder^(N) from his holy dwelling^(O)
    and roar mightily against his land.
He will shout like those who tread^(P) the grapes,
    shout against all who live on the earth.
