Ezekiel
Chapters 19:1-4
Revised Version 1885
1Moreover, take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
2and say, What was thy mother? A lioness: she couched among lions, in the midst of the young lions she nourished her whelps.
3And she brought up one of her whelps; he became a young lion: and he learned to catch the prey, he devoured men.
4The nations also heard of him; he was taken in their pit: and they brought him with hooks unto the land of Egypt.
