Ezekiel 19:1
Moreover take thou
up
a
lamentation
for the
princes
of
Israel,
2
And
say,
What is thy
mother?
A
lioness:
she lay
down
among
lions,
she
nourished
her
whelps
among
young
lions.
3
And she brought
up
one
of her
whelps:
it became a young
lion,
and it
learned
to
catch
the
prey;
it
devoured
men.
4
The
nations
also
heard
of him; he was
taken
in their
pit,
and they
brought
him with
chains
unto the
land
of
Egypt.
5
Now when she
saw
that she had
waited,
and her
hope
was
lost,
then she
took
another
of her
whelps,
and
made
him a young
lion.
6
And he went up and
down
among
the
lions,
he became a young
lion,
and
learned
to
catch
the
prey,
and
devoured
men.
7
And he
knew
their desolate
palaces,
and he laid
waste
their
cities;
and the
land
was
desolate,
and the
fulness
thereof, by the
noise
of his
roaring.
8
Then the
nations
set
against him on every
side
from the
provinces,
and
spread
their
net
over him: he was
taken
in their
pit.
9
And they
put
him in
ward
in
chains,
and
brought
him to the
king
of
Babylon:
they
brought
him into
holds,
that his
voice
should no more be
heard
upon the
mountains
of
Israel.
10
Thy
mother
is like a
vine
in thy
blood,
planted
by
the waters:
she
was fruitful
and
full of branches
by
reason of many
waters.
11
And she had
strong
rods
for the
sceptres
of them that bare
rule,
and her
stature
was
exalted
among the thick
branches,
and she
appeared
in her
height
with the
multitude
of her
branches.
12
But she was plucked
up
in
fury,
she was cast
down
to the
ground,
and the
east
wind
dried
up
her
fruit:
her
strong
rods
were
broken
and
withered;
the
fire
consumed
them.
13
And now she is
planted
in the
wilderness,
in a
dry
and
thirsty
ground.
14
And
fire
is gone
out
of a
rod
of her
branches,
which hath
devoured
her
fruit,
so that she hath no
strong
rod
to be a
sceptre
to
rule.
This is a
lamentation,
and shall be for a
lamentation.
