And the carcases of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; and none shall fray [them] away.
Jeremiah 7:33 — KJV
Meat for the fowls. A great number of corpses would remain unburied (see Deut. 28:26; Jer. 16:4; 19:7; Jer. 34:20), because of the extent of the slaughter and the small number of survivors.
Fray. An obsolete English word meaning “to frighten.” The city would become so nearly depopulated that there would be no one to scare away the birds or beasts from feeding on the corpses (cf. Rev. 19:17, 18, 21).
