isaiah 59:11 We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.

isaiah 59:11 All of us growl like bears, And moan sadly like doves; We hope for justice, but there is none, For salvation, [but] it is far from us.

11. roar--moan plaintively, like a hungry bear which growls for food.
doves-- (Isa 38:14; Eze 7:16).
salvation--retribution in kind: because not salvation, but "destruction" was "in their paths" (Isa 59:7).

isaiah 59:11 All of us growl like bears, And moan sadly like doves; We hope for justice, but there is none, For salvation, [but] it is far from us.
