and say:“‘ What a lioness was your mother among the lions! She lay down among them and reared her cubs.

Say to Israel,“‘ You were like a mother lion to your princes. She lay down among the lions. She brought up her cubs.

and say,‘ What was your mother? A lioness. She couched among lions, in the middle of the young lions she nourished her cubs.

The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, And the whelps of the lioness are scattered abroad.

A voice of the wailing of the shepherds! for their glory is destroyed: a voice of the roaring of young lions! for the pride of the Jordan is laid waste.

Woe to her that is rebellious and polluted! to the oppressing city!She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in Jehovah; she drew not near to her God.Her princes in the midst of her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they leave nothing till the morrow.Her prophets are light and treacherous persons; her priests have profaned the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.

their roaring shall be like a lioness, they shall roar like young lions; yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and carry it away safe, and there shall be none to deliver.

And the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder’s den.They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of Jehovah, as the waters cover the sea.

Where is the den of the lions, and the feeding- place of the young lions, where the lion and the lioness walked, the lion’s whelp, and none made them afraid?The lion did tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his caves with prey, and his dens with ravin.

Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: Break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Jehovah.
