4 When the nations heard of him,they trapped him in a pit,then they used hooksto drag him to Egypt.
5 His mother waitedfor him to return.But soon she lost all hopeand raised another cub,who also became fierce.
6 He hunted with other lionsand learnt to eat people.
7 He destroyed fortressesand ruined towns;his mighty roarterrified everyone.
8 Nations plotted to kill him,and people came from everywhereto spread out a netand catch him in a trap.
