Nahum 2:11-12
Lexham English Bible
The Divine Warrior Will Hunt down the Mighty Lions
11 Where now is the den of the lions
and the cave of the fierce lions?
There the lioness, the cub, and the lion once prowled,[a]
and no one disturbed them.[b]
12 The lion tore apart enough prey for his cubs,
he strangled prey for his lioness;
he filled his lair[c] with prey
and his den with mangled carcass.

Nahum 2:11-12
Common English Bible
Cruel Nineveh will be destroyed
11 Where is the lions’ den, the meadow of the young lions,
where lion, lioness, even lion cub go about with no one to terrify them?
12 The lion has torn enough prey
for his cubs and strangled enough for his lionesses;
he has filled his lairs with prey,
his dens with torn flesh.
