1 Anger comes like a wild bull,
2–3 Keeps [ju]mping like a dog.
4–5 Like a lion it is fierce-ranging,
6–7 Like a wolf it is full of ferocity.
8–9 - Sit down! I will walk through you like (over) a threshold,
10–11 I will pass back and forth through you like (through) an Arkabinnu-door.
12–14 I will hang above you like a lintel.
15–16 Like (with) a restraining-rope, I will curb your step.
17–18 I will take out the fire of your heart.
