Lamentations 3:10

ד (Dalet) To me he is like a bear lying in ambush, ¹  like a hidden lion ²  stalking its prey. ³ 

Like a bear lying in wait, like a lion in hiding,

He is to me like a bear lying in wait, Like a lion in secret places.

He hid like a bear or a lion, waiting to attack me.

He's a prowling bear tracking me down, a lion in hiding ready to pounce.

He is like a bear waiting for me, like a lion in secret places.

He is a bear lying in wait for me, a lion in hiding;

He has been to me a bear lying in wait, Like a lion in ambush.

ד (Dalet) To me he is like a bear lying in ambush, ¹  like a hidden lion ²  stalking its prey. ³ 

¹ tn Heb “he is to me [like] a bear lying in wait.”

² tc The Kethib is written אַרְיֵה (’aryeh, “lion”), while the Qere is אֲרִי (’ari, “lion”), simply a short spelling of the same term (BDB 71 s.v. אַרְיֵה).

³ tn Heb “a lion in hiding places.”
