Ezekiel 19:2-8

LEB(i) 2 and you must say,
'What a lioness was your mother among the lions. She lay down in the midst of young lions, and she reared her lion cubs. 3 And she raised up one from her cubs; he became a fierce lion, and he learned to tear prey; he ate* humans.* 4 And nations heard about him; in their pit he was caught, and they brought him with hooks to the land of Egypt. 5 And she saw* that she was waiting in vain; her hope was destroyed, and she took one from her cubs, and she made him a fierce lion. 6 And he walked about in the midst of lions; he became a fierce lion, and he learned to tear prey; he ate* humans.* 7 And he knew their widows,* and he devastated their cities, and the land was appalled, and everyone in it* at the sound of his roar. 8 And nations set out against him from the surrounding provinces,* and they spread their net over him, and he was caught in their pit.
