Verse 44

Jeremiah 50:44

Literal Standard Version

44 Behold, he comes up as a lion, || Because of the rising of the Jordan, || To the enduring habitation, || But I cause to rest, I cause them to run from off her. And who is chosen? I lay a charge on her, || For who is like Me? And who convenes Me? And who is this shepherd who stands before Me?

English Translation
Behold, as a lion he will rise from the pride of the Jordan to the dwelling place of the strong, for those who drive him away will be quieted; who among them will appoint for me? For who is like me and who will declare my case, and who is this shepherd who will stand before me?
