Benjamin is a ravenous wolf;in the morning he devours the prey,in the evening he divides the plunder.”
Their horses are swifter than leopards,fiercer than wolves of the night.Their horsemen charge ahead,and their cavalry comes from afar.They fly like a vulture,swooping down to devour.
The wolf will live with the lamb,and the leopard will lie down with the goat;the calf and young lion and fatling will be together,and a little child will lead them.
The wolf and the lamb will feed together,and the lion will eat straw like the ox,but the food of the serpent will be dust.They will neither harm nor destroyon all My holy mountain,”says the LORD.
