Ezekiel 19:2-9

2And sayH559, What is thy motherH517? A lionessH3833: she lay downH7257 among lionsH738, she nourishedH7235 her whelpsH1482 amongH8432 young lionsH3715.

3And she brought upH5927 oneH259 of her whelpsH1482: it became a young lionH3715, and it learnedH3925 to catchH2963 the preyH2964; it devouredH398 menH120.

4The nationsH1471 also heardH8085 of him; he was takenH8610 in their pitH7845, and they broughtH935 him with chainsH2397 unto the landH776 of EgyptH4714.

5Now when she sawH7200 that she had waitedH3176, and her hopeH8615 was lostH6, then she tookH3947 anotherH259 of her whelpsH1482, and madeH7760 him a young lionH3715.

6And he went up and downH1980 amongH8432 the lionsH738, he became a young lionH3715, and learnedH3925 to catchH2963 the preyH2964, and devouredH398 menH120.

7And he knewH3045 their desolate palacesH490, and he laid wasteH2717 their citiesH5892; and the landH776 was desolateH3456, and the fulnessH4393 thereof, by the noiseH6963 of his roaringH7581.12

8Then the nationsH1471 setH5414 against him on every sideH5439 from the provincesH4082, and spreadH6566 their netH7568 over him: he was takenH8610 in their pitH7845.

9And they putH5414 him in wardH5474 in chainsH2397, and broughtH935 him to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894: they broughtH935 him into holdsH4685, that his voiceH6963 should no more be heardH8085 upon the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478.3
