Isaiah 31:4

 4 This is what the Lord says to me: “As a lion   growls, a great lion over its prey— and though a whole band of shepherds   is called together against it, it is not frightened by their shouts or disturbed by their clamor  — so the Lord Almighty will come down   to do battle on Mount Zion and on its heights. 

From Wikipedia: 

The New International Version (NIV) is an English translation of the Bible first published in 1978 by Biblica (formerly the International Bible Society). The NIV was published to meet the need for a modern translation done by Bible scholars using the earliest, highest quality manuscripts available. Of equal importance was that the Bible be expressed in broadly understood modern English.

The NIV is published by Zondervan in the United States and Hodder & Stoughton in the UK. The NIV was updated in 1984 and 2011 and has become one of the most popular and best-selling modern translations.
