Nahum 2:11-12
New Living Translation
11 Where now is that great Nineveh,
that den filled with young lions?
It was a place where people—like lions and their cubs—
walked freely and without fear.
12 The lion tore up meat for his cubs
and strangled prey for his mate.
He filled his den with prey,
his caverns with his plunder.
Nahum 2:11-12
New American Standard Bible
11 Where is the den of the lions
And the feeding place of the (A)young lions,
Where the lion, lioness, and lion’s cub went
With nothing to disturb them?
12 The lion tore enough for his cubs,
[a]Killed enough prey for his lionesses,
And filled his lairs with prey
And his dens with torn flesh.
