The Flock Doomed to Slaughter

11 Open your doors, (A)O Lebanon,
    that the fire may devour your cedars!
Wail, O cypress, for the cedar has fallen,
    for the glorious trees are ruined!
Wail, (B)oaks of Bashan,
    for the thick forest has been felled!
The sound of (C)the wail of (D)the shepherds,
    for their glory is ruined!
The sound of the roar of (E)the lions,
    (F)for the thicket of the Jordan is ruined!

11 Open your doors, Lebanon,
    so that fire may devour your cedar forests.
Weep, you cypress trees, for all the ruined cedars;
    the most majestic ones have fallen.
Weep, you oaks of Bashan,
    for the thick forests have been cut down.
Listen to the wailing of the shepherds,
    for their rich pastures are destroyed.
Hear the young lions roaring,
    for their thickets in the Jordan Valley are ruined.
