Ezekiel 19:5-9

5His mother waited for him to return home. He did not come and she stopped hoping for him. She helped another of her sons to become a strong young lion.

6He grew to be strong among the other lions. He learned to catch wild animals and to eat them. He also learned to eat people.

7He attacked their strong buildings and he destroyed their cities. When he roared, the noise frightened everyone in the land.

8Men from other nations near there came to attack him. They threw a net over him. They caught him in their trap.

9They tied hooks around his neck. They took him to the king of Babylon. There they put him in prison to stop him roaring. The people on the hills of Israel could not hear his voice any longer.
