Ezekiel 19:2 ASV

¹  Moreover, take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,

²  and say, What was thy mother? A lioness: she couched among lions, in the midst of the young lions she nourished her whelps.

³  And she brought up one of her whelps: he became a young lion, and he learned to catch the prey; he devoured men.

⁴  The nations also heard of him; he was taken in their pit; and they brought him with hooks unto the land of Egypt.
