A pronouncement(A) concerning the animals of the Negev:[a]

Through a land of trouble and distress,
of lioness and lion,
of viper and flying serpent,(B)
they carry their wealth on the backs of donkeys
and their treasures on the humps of camels,
to a people who will not help them.
Egypt’s help is completely worthless;
therefore, I call her:
Rahab Who Just Sits.(C)

Go now, write it on a tablet in their presence
and inscribe it on a scroll;
it will be for the future,
forever and ever.
