Ezekiel 19:5-7
Modern English Version
5 Now when she saw as she had waited
that her hope was lost,
then she took another of her whelps
and made him a young lion.
6 He went up and down among the lions;
he became a young lion,
and learned to catch the prey,
and devoured men.
7 He destroyed their fortified palaces,
and he laid waste their cities;
and the land and its fullness
were appalled by the noise of his roaring.

for he was now a strong lion.
He learned to tear the prey
and he became a man-eater.(C)

and devastated(D) their towns.
The land and all who were in it
were terrified by his roaring.
