A lion has gone up from his thicket, and a destroyer of nations. He is on his way. He has gone out from his place, to make your land desolate, that your cities be laid waste, without inhabitant.

ગુજરાતીયર્મિયા ૪:૭
સિંહ પોતાની ઝાડીમાંથી ચઢી આવ્યો છે; તે તો પ્રજાઓનો વિનાશક છે. તારા દેશને ઉજ્જડ કરવા માટે તે પોતાના રહેઠાણમાંથી બહાર આવ્યો છે. તારાં નગરો એવાં ઉજ્જડ થશે કે, તેઓમાં કોઈ રહેવાસી જોવામાં આવશે નહિ.
हिन्दीयिर्मयाह ४:७
एक सिंह अपनी झाड़ी से निकला, जाति-जाति का नाश करनेवाला चढ़ाई करके आ रहा है; वह कूच करके अपने स्थान से इसलिए निकला है कि तुम्हारे देश को उजाड़ दे और तुम्हारे नगरों को ऐसा सुनसान कर दे कि उनमें कोई बसनेवाला न रहने पाए।
