Ezekiel 19:1-4
Holman Christian Standard Bible
A Lament for Israel’s Princes
19 “Now, lament for the princes of Israel(A) 2 and say:
What was your mother? A lioness!
She lay down among the lions;
she reared her cubs among the young lions.
3 She brought up one of her cubs,
and he became a young lion.(B)
After he learned to tear prey,
he devoured people.
4 When the nations heard about him,
he was caught in their pit.
Then they led him away with hooks
to the land of Egypt.(C)

Lament for the Leaders of Israel
19 “And you, raise a lament about[a] the leaders of Israel, 2 and you must say,
‘What a lioness was your mother
among the lions.
She lay down in the midst of young lions,
and she reared her lion cubs.
3 And she raised up one from her cubs;
he became a fierce lion,
and he learned to tear prey;
he ate[b] humans.[c]
4 And nations heard about him;
in their pit he was caught,
and they brought him with hooks
to the land of Egypt.
