Ezekiel 19:2-9

2and say, What was thy mother? A lioness: she lay down among lions, she nourished her whelps in the midst of the young lions.

3And she brought up one of her whelps; it became a young lion, and he learned to catch the prey; he devoured men.

4And the nations heard of him; he was taken in their pit, and they brought him with nose-rings into the land of Egypt.

5And when she saw that she had waited [and] her hope was lost, she took another of her whelps, [and] made him a young lion.

6And he went up and down among the lions; he became a young lion, and learned to catch the prey; he devoured men.

7And he knew their [desolate] palaces, and he laid waste their cities, so that the land was desolate, and all it contained, by the noise of his roaring.

8Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces, and spread their net over him; he was taken in their pit.

9And they put him in a cage with nose-rings, and brought him to the king of Babylon; they brought him into strongholds, that his voice should no more be heard upon the mountains of Israel.
