11 Where is the lions’ den [C the lion was a symbol of Assyria]
    and the place where they feed their young?
Where did the lion, lioness, and cubs go
    without being afraid?
12 The lion killed enough for his cubs,
    ·enough [L and strangled prey] for his ·mate [L lionesses].
He filled his cave with ·the animals he caught [prey];
    he filled his den with ·meat he had killed [L torn (flesh)].

Where is the den of the lions (Assyria)
And the feeding place of the young lions,
Where the lion, lioness, and lion’s cub prowled
With nothing to fear?

Killed [enough prey] for his lionesses,
And filled his lairs with prey
And his dens with torn flesh.
