Ezekiel 19:5-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 When she saw that she was thwarted,
that her hope was lost,
she took another of her cubs
and made him a young lion.(A)
6 He prowled among the lions;
he became a young lion,
and he learned to catch prey;
he devoured people.(B)
7 And he ravaged their strongholds[a]
and laid waste their towns;
the land was appalled, and all in it,
at the sound of his roaring.(C)
8 The nations set upon him
from the provinces all around;
they spread their net over him;
he was caught in their pit.(D)
9 With hooks they put him in a neck collar
and brought him to the king of Babylon;
they brought him into custody,
so that his voice should be heard no more
on the mountains of Israel.(E)

Ezekiel 19:5-9
International Standard Version
5 When she learned that her plans had been frustrated
and that her hopes were dashed,
she took another of her cubs
and turned him into a fierce lion.
6 He prowled around among the lions,
became a strong, young lion,
and learned to become a hunter-prowler—
to eat human beings.
7 He raped[a] the women,
devastating their towns.
The land was made desolate,
and all the while the land was filled
with the sound of his roaring.
8 The surrounding nations attacked.
They tossed their net over him,
and he was caught in their trap.[b]
9 They imprisoned him in a cage with hooks
and brought him to the king of Babel.
Then they placed him in their dungeon
where his voice would no longer be heard
on the mountains of Israel.
