| King James Version (KJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 38 He hath forsaken his covert, as the lion: for their land is desolate because of the fierceness of the oppressor , and because of his fierce anger. | 38 Like a lion he will leave his lair, and their land will become desolate because of the sword of the oppressor and because of the LORD's fierce anger. |
