Ezekiel 19:2


Ezekiel 19:1 Ezekiel 19:2 (KJV) Ezekiel 19:3
Moreover take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
And say, What [is] thy mother? A lioness: she lay down among lions, she nourished her whelps among young lions.
And she brought up one of her whelps: it became a young lion, and it learned to catch the prey; it devoured men.
