Ezekiel 19:5-9
New American Standard Bible
5 When she saw, as she waited,
That her hope was lost,
She took [a]another of her cubs
And made (A)him a young lion.
6 And he (B)walked about among the lions,
He became a young lion;
He learned to tear his prey;
He devoured people.
7 He [b]destroyed their [c]palaces
And laid waste their cities;
And the land and its fullness were appalled
Because of the sound of his roaring.
8 Then (C)nations set against him
On every side from their provinces,
And they spread their net over him;
He was caught in their trap.
9 (D)They put him in a [d]wooden collar with hooks
And (E)brought him to the king of Babylon;
They brought him in hunting nets
So that his voice would no longer be heard
On the mountains of Israel.

Ezekiel 19:5-9
Common English Bible
5 When she realized that she waited in vain, her hope faded.
So she took another of her cubs and set him up as a strong young lion.
6 He went on the prowl with the other lions and became a strong young lion.
He learned to tear flesh and devour humans;
7 he ravaged[a] their widows and laid waste to their cities.
When the earth and everything in it became horrified by the sound of his raging,
8 the nations from the surrounding regions allied against him.
They cast their nets over him and caught him in their trap.
9 They put a collar on him and brought him with hooks.
They brought him with nets to the king of Babylon
so that his voice would no longer be heard on the mountains of Israel.
