Ezekiel 19:5-9

Ezekiel 19:5-9 NASB1995

When she saw, as she waited, That her hope was lost, She took another of her cubs And made him a young lion. And he walked about among the lions; He became a young lion, He learned to tear his prey; He devoured men. He destroyed their fortified towers And laid waste their cities; And the land and its fullness were appalled Because of the sound of his roaring. Then nations set against him On every side from their provinces, And they spread their net over him; He was captured in their pit. They put him in a cage with hooks And brought him to the king of Babylon; They brought him in hunting nets So that his voice would be heard no more On the mountains of Israel.
