New International Version
2 and say:
“‘What a lioness(A) was your mother
among the lions!
She lay down among them
and reared her cubs.(B)
3 She brought up one of her cubs,
and he became a strong lion.
He learned to tear the prey
and he became a man-eater.
4 The nations heard about him,
and he was trapped in their pit.
They led him with hooks(C)
to the land of Egypt.(D)
5 “‘When she saw her hope unfulfilled,
her expectation gone,
she took another of her cubs(E)
and made him a strong lion.(F)
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.(G)
7 He broke down[a] their strongholds
and devastated(H) their towns.
The land and all who were in it
were terrified by his roaring.
8 Then the nations(I) came against him,
those from regions round about.
They spread their net(J) for him,
and he was trapped in their pit.(K)

Ezekiel 19:2-8
King James Version
2 And say, What is thy mother? A lioness: she lay down among lions, she nourished her whelps among young lions.
3 And she brought up one of her whelps: it became a young lion, and it learned to catch the prey; it devoured men.
4 The nations also heard of him; he was taken in their pit, and they brought him with chains unto the land of Egypt.
5 Now when she saw that she had waited, and her hope was lost, then she took another of her whelps, and made him a young lion.
6 And he went up and down among the lions, he became a young lion, and learned to catch the prey, and devoured men.
7 And he knew their desolate palaces, and he laid waste their cities; and the land was desolate, and the fulness thereof, by the noise of his roaring.
8 Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces, and spread their net over him: he was taken in their pit.
