<p class="poetry">The cities of Aroer are abandoned.<n id="1" />p> <p class="poetry">They will be used for herds,p> <p class="poetry">which will lie down there in peace.<n id="2" />p>

Your carcasses will be food for every bird of the sky and wild animal of the earth, and there will be no one to chase them off.

Then the dead bodies of these people will be left on the ground for the birds and wild animals to eat.<n id="1" /> There will not be any survivors to scare them away.

I will grant peace in the land so that<n id="1" /> you will lie down to sleep without anyone terrifying you.<n id="2" /> I will remove harmful animals<n id="3" /> from the land, and no sword of war<n id="4" /> will pass through your land.

They will no longer be prey for the nations and the wild beasts will not devour them. They will live securely and no one will make them afraid.

They will bear their shame for all their unfaithful acts against me, when they live securely on their land with no one to make them afraid.
