Ezekiel 19:5-7
The Voice
5 When the lioness realized that her hopes for her son had vanished,
she chose another one of her cubs and trained him to be a strong and fierce young lion.
6 He prowled among the other lions;
he was now a robust young lion.
He learned to hunt and tear into his prey; he became a man-eater.
7 He seized their widows and left their cities in ruins.
The whole land—everything in it—was terrified when he roared.
Ezekiel 19:5-7

5 “‘When she saw her hope unfulfilled,
her expectation gone,
she took another of her cubs(A)
and made him a strong lion.(B)
6 He prowled among the lions,
for he was now a strong lion.
He learned to tear the prey
and he became a man-eater.(C)
7 He broke down[a] their strongholds
and devastated(D) their towns.
The land and all who were in it
were terrified by his roaring.
