All you (A)beasts of the field,
All you beasts in the forest,
Come to eat.
10 His (B)watchmen are (C)blind;
All of them know nothing.
All of them are mute dogs unable to bark,
[a]Dreamers lying down, who love to slumber;
11 And the dogs have a (D)strong [b]appetite; they do not know satisfaction.
And they are shepherds who (E)do not know understanding;
They have all (F)turned to their own way,
Each one to his greedy gain, to the last one.

And (H)tomorrow will be like today—[d]beyond exceedingly great.”
