1 Moreover take thou up a kinah (lament) for the nasi'im of Yisroel,
2 And say, What is immecha, a lioness? She lay down among arayot (lions), rearing her cubs among young lions.
3 And she brought up one of her cubs; it became a strong lion, and it learned to tear teref (prey); it devoured adam.
4 The Goyim also heard of him; he was trapped in their shachat (pit), and they brought him with hooks unto Eretz Mitzrayim.
5 Now when she saw that in vain she had waited, and her tikvah (hope) was lost, then she took another of her cubs, and made him a strong lion.
