Their bull gendereth, and faileth not; their cow calveth, and casteth not her calf.

Their bulls breed without fail; their cows bear calves and do not miscarry.

Rebuke the beast in the reeds, the herd of bulls among the calves of the nations, until it submits, bringing bars of silver. Scatter the nations who delight in war.

Yet the defenced city shall be desolate, and the habitation forsaken, and left like a wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof.
