Ezekiel 19:2-6

2and say, ‘1What was your mother? A lioness among lions! She lay down among young lions, She raised her cubs.3When she brought up one of her cubs, 2He became a young lion, And he learned to tear his prey; He devoured people.4Then nations heard about him; He was caught in their trap, And they 3brought him with hooks To the land of Egypt.5When she saw, as she waited, That her hope was lost, She took 4another of her cubs And made 5him a young lion.6And he 6walked about among the lions, He became a young lion; He learned to tear his prey; He devoured people.
