Ezekiel 19:1-4

Evangelical Heritage Version

    What a lioness your mother was!
    She crouched among the lions.
    Among the young lions she reared her cubs.
³ She raised up one of her cubs.^[a]
    When he became a young lion,
        he learned to tear his prey.
    He even ate humans.
⁴ When the nations heard about him,
        he was trapped in their pit.
    With hooks they led him to the land of Egypt.
