He has cut off all the horn of Israel in fierce anger. He has drawn back his right hand from before the enemy. He has burned up Jacob like a flaming fire, which devours all around.

ગુજરાતીયર્મિયાનો વિલાપ ૨:૩
તેમણે ભારે કોપથી ઇઝરાયલનું સઘળું બળ કાપી નાખ્યું છે. તેમણે શત્રુની આગળ પોતાનો જમણો હાથ પાછો ખેંચી લીધો છે. જે ભડભડ બળતો અગ્નિ ચારે તરફનું બાળી નાખે છે તેમ તેમણે યાકૂબને બાળી નાખ્યો છે.
हिन्दीविलापगीत २:३
उसने क्रोध में आकर इस्राएल के सींग को जड़ से काट डाला है ; उसने शत्रु के सामने उनकी सहायता करने से अपना दाहिना हाथ खींच लिया है; उसने चारों ओर भस्म करती हुई लौ के समान याकूब को जला दिया है।
