I have likened daughter Zion
    to the loveliest pasture.[a]
Shepherds with their flocks shall come against her.
    They shall pitch their tents around her;
    they shall pasture, all in their places.
‘Prepare war against her;
    up, and let us attack at noon!’
‘Woe to us, for the day declines,
    the shadows of evening lengthen!’
