And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
The Hebrew reads, "a wild-ass man." Unrenewed nature is always thus. Job 11:12. See this promise concerning Ishmael fulfilled. Genesis 25:18. The wild Arabs, which are descendants of Ishmael, preserve the same character to this day.
