New International Version (NIV)

2He said:

“The Lord roars from Zion

and thunders from Jerusalem;

the pastures of the shepherds dry up,

and the top of Carmel withers.”

2And he said,

“The Lord roars from Zion,

And from Jerusalem He utters His voice;

And the shepherds’ pasture grounds mourn,

And the 1:2 Lit headsummit of Carmel dries up.”

2He said,

“The Lord roars from Zion

And from Jerusalem He utters His voice;

And the shepherds’ pasture grounds mourn,

And the summit of Carmel dries up.”

2And he said,

“The Lord thunders and roars from Zion [in judgment]

And utters His voice from Jerusalem;

Then the pastures of the shepherds mourn,

And the summit of [Mount] Carmel dries up [because of God’s judgment].” [Is 42:13; Jer 25:30; Joel 3:16]

2He said:

“The Lord roars from Zion

and raises His voice from Jerusalem;

the pastures of the shepherds mourn,

and the summit of Carmel withers.”

2He said,

“The Lord roars like a lion from Jerusalem.

His voice sounds like thunder from Zion.

The grasslands of the shepherds turn brown.

The top of Mount Carmel dries up.”
