Ezekiel 19:1-4

New Living Translation

² “What is your mother?
    A lioness among lions!
She lay down among the young lions
    and reared her cubs.
³ She raised one of her cubs
    to become a strong young lion.
He learned to hunt and devour prey,
    and he became a man-eater.
⁴ Then the nations heard about him,
    and he was trapped in their pit.
They led him away with hooks
    to the land of Egypt.
