Oto słyszeć głos żałosny pastyrzów, abowiem zacność ich spustoszona jest, oto też i głos ryku lwiego słychać, abowiem pycha Jordanu zborzona jest.
Oto głos narzekania pasterzy! Bo spustoszona ich wspaniałość! Oto głos ryku lwiąt! Bo spustoszona duma Jordanu!
Oto odgłos narzekania pasterzy, że została spustoszona ich wspaniałość; odgłos poryku lwiąt, że spustoszona pycha Jardenu.
Głos narzekania pasterzy słyszany jest, iż zburzona jest wielmożność ich; głos ryku lwiąt, iż zburzona jest pycha Jordanu.
Słychać głos narzekania pasterzy, bo ich wspaniałość została zburzona; słychać głos ryku lwiąt, bo pycha Jordanu jest zburzona.
Słychać biadanie pasterzy, gdyż ich chluba jest zniszczona! Słychać ryk lwiąt, gdyż duma Jordanu jest spustoszona.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
[There is] a voice of the howling of the shepherds,.... Which may be understood either of the civil rulers among the Jews, who now lose their honour and their riches; and so the Targum, Jarchi, and Aben Ezra, interpret it of kings; or of the ecclesiastical rulers, the elders of the people, the Scribes and Pharisees:
for their glory is spoiled; their power and authority; their riches and wealth; their places of honour and profit; their offices, posts, and employments, whether in civil or religious matters, are taken from them, and they are deprived of them:
a voice of the roaring of young lions; of princes, comparable to them for their power, tyranny, and cruelty: the Targum is,
"their roaring is as the roaring of young lions:''
for the pride of Jordan is spoiled; a place where lions and their young ones resorted, as Jarchi observes; :-. Jordan is here put for the whole land of Judea now wasted, and so its pride and glory gone; as if the waters of Jordan were dried up, the pride and glory of that, and which it showed when its waters swelled and overflowed; hence called by Pliny x "ambitiosus amnis", a haughty and ambitious swelling river.
x Nat. Hist. l. 5. c. 15.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A voice of the howling of the shepherds, for their glory is spoiled - It echoes on from Jeremiah before the captivity, âHowl, ye shepherds - A voice of the cry of the shepherds. and an howling of the principal of the flock; for the Lord hath spoiled their pastureâ Jeremiah 25:34, Jeremiah 25:36. There is one chorus of desolation, the mighty and the lowly; the shepherds and the young lions; what is at other times opposed is joined in one wailing. âThe pride of Jordanâ are the stately oaks on its banks, which shroud it from sight, until you reach its edges, and which, after the captivity of the ten tribes, became the haunt of lions and their chief abode in Palestine, âon account of the burning heat, and the nearness of the desert, and the breadth of the vast solitude and junglesâ (Jerome). See Jeremiah 49:19; Jeremiah 50:44; 2 Kings 17:25. The lion lingered there even to the close of the 12th cent. Phocas in Reland Palaest. i. 274. Cyril says in the present, âthere are very many lions there, roaring horribly and striking fear into the inhabitantsâ).
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Zechariah 11:3. Young lions — Princes and rulers. By shepherds, kings or priests may be intended.
