Zechariah 11:1-3
Good News Translation
The Fall of the Tyrants
11 Open your doors, Lebanon,
so that fire can burn down your cedar trees![a]
2 Weep and wail, cypress trees—
the cedars have fallen;
those glorious trees have been destroyed!
Weep and wail, oaks of Bashan—
the dense forest has been cut down!
3 The rulers cry out in grief;
their glory is gone!
Listen to the roaring of the lions;
their forest home along the Jordan is destroyed!
