Ezekiel 19
1
“Moreover, take up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
2
in the middle of the young lions she nourished her cubs.
3
He devoured men.
4
and they brought him with hooks to the land of Egypt.
5
and made him a young lion.
6
He devoured men.
7
because of the noise of his roaring.
8
He was taken in their pit.
9
so that his voice should no more be heard on the mountains of Israel.
10
It was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.
11
with the multitude of their branches.
12
The fire consumed them.
13
in a dry and thirsty land.
14
This is a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation.”
