Zechariah 11:1–3 · Berean Standard Bible

1 Open your doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may consume your cedars!

2 Wail, O cypress, for the cedar has fallen; the majestic trees are ruined! Wail, O oaks of Bashan, for the dense forest has been cut down!

3 Listen to the wailing of the shepherds, for their glory is in ruins. Listen to the roaring of the young lions, for the thickets of the Jordan are destroyed.
