Isaias 51:20

Thy children are cast forth, they have slept at the head of all the ways, as the wild ox that is snared: full of the indignation of the Lord, of the rebuke of thy God.

The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Filii tui projecti sunt, dormierunt in capite omnium viarum sicut oryx illaqueatus, pleni indignatione Domini, increpatione Dei tui.
Septuagint (Swete)
οἱ υἱοί σου οἱ ἀπορούμενοι, οἱ καθεύδοντες ἐπ᾽ ἄκρου πάσης ἐξόδου ὡς σευτλίον ἡμίεφθον, οἱ πλήρεις θυμοῦ Κυρίου, ἐκλελυμένοι διὰ Κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ.
Hebrew (WLC)
בָּנַ֜יִךְ עֻלְּפ֥וּ שָׁכְב֛וּ בְּרֹ֥אשׁ כָּל חוּצ֖וֹת כְּת֣וֹא מִכְמָ֑ר הַֽמְלֵאִ֥ים חֲמַת יְהוָ֖ה גַּעֲרַ֥ת אֱלֹהָֽיִךְ

Haydock's commentary

Ox, oryx. Hebrew Thua, Deuteronomy xiv. 5. (Haydock)

Many accounts respecting it are fabulous. Some understand a sort of wolf, mentioned by Pliny, [Natural History?] viii. 34. Septuagint, "like beet half boiled."
