In 1 translation

1En-Charles

[And in the day of the tribulation of the sinners, Your children shall mount and rise as eagles, And higher than the vultures will be your nest, And ye shall ascend and enter the crevices of the earth, And the clefts of the rock for ever as coneys before the unrighteous, And the sirens shall sigh because of you—and weep.]Is it suffered or caused by the sinners ?Interpolation. The wicked will hide themselves, not the righteous, in the coming time; xcvii. 3, c. 4, cii. 1, civ. 5. But the first three lines may be original.Isa. ii. 10, 19, 21, from the presence of the Lord, not as here 'before the unrighteous' – a clumsy insertion.'as the sirens' qt,β. These may be satyrs or sirens–by the same word the Eth. version renders σειρήνες in Isa. xiii. 21, Jer. xxvii. (1.) 39.
