NETBible

Like lions his enemies roar victoriously over him; they raise their voices in triumph.¹ They have laid his land waste; his cities have been burned down and deserted.²

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “Lions shout over him, they give out [raise] their voices.”

¹sn The reference to lions is here a metaphor for the Assyrians (and later the Babylonians, see Jer 50:17). The statement about lions roaring over their prey implies that the prey has been vanquished.

²tn Heb “without inhabitant.”
