Ezekiel 19:1-14

Moreover take thou up
<05375> (8798)
a lamentation
<07015>
for the princes
<05387>
of Israel
<03478>_,
And say
<0559> (8804)_,
What [is] thy mother
<0517>_?
A lioness
<03833>_:
she lay down
<07257> (8804)
among lions
<0738>_,
she nourished
<07235> (8765)
her whelps
<01482>
among
<08432>
young lions
<03715>_.
And she brought up
<05927> (8686)
one
<0259>
of her whelps
<01482>_:
it became a young lion
<03715>_,
and it learned
<03925> (8799)
to catch
<02963> (8800)
the prey
<02964>_;
it devoured
<0398> (8804)
men
<0120>_.
The nations
<01471>
also heard
<08085> (8799)
of him; he was taken
<08610> (8738)
in their pit
<07845>_,
and they brought
<0935> (8686)
him with chains
<02397>
unto the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
Now when she saw
<07200> (8799)
that she had waited
<03176> (8738)_,
[and] her hope
<08615>
was lost
<06> (8804)_,
then she took
<03947> (8799)
another
<0259>
of her whelps
<01482>_,
[and] made
<07760> (8804)
him a young lion
<03715>_.
And he went up and down
<01980> (8691)
among
<08432>
the lions
<0738>_,
he became a young lion
<03715>_,
and learned
<03925> (8799)
to catch
<02963> (8800)
the prey
<02964>_,
[and] devoured
<0398> (8804)
men
<0120>_.
And he knew
<03045> (8799)
their desolate palaces
<0490>_,
and he laid waste
<02717> (8689)
their cities
<05892>_;
and the land
<0776>
was desolate
<03456> (8799)_,
and the fulness
<04393>
thereof, by the noise
<06963>
of his roaring
<07581>_.
{their desolate...: or, their widows} {the fulness...: or, all it containeth}
Then the nations
<01471>
set
<05414> (8799)
against him on every side
<05439>
from the provinces
<04082>_,
and spread
<06566> (8799)
their net
<07568>
over him: he was taken
<08610> (8738)
in their pit
<07845>_.
And they put
<05414> (8799)
him in ward
<05474>
in chains
<02397>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
him to the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_:
they brought
<0935> (8686)
him into holds
<04685>_,
that his voice
<06963>
should no more be heard
<08085> (8735)
upon the mountains
<02022>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{in chains: or, in hooks}
Thy mother
<0517>
[is] like a vine
<01612>
in thy blood
<01818> (8676) <01818>_,
planted
<08362> (8803)
by the waters
<04325>_:
she was fruitful
<06509> (8802)
and full of branches
<06058>
by reason of many
<07227>
waters
<04325>_.
{in...: or, in thy quietness, or, in thy likeness}
And she had strong
<05797>
rods
<04294>
for the sceptres
<07626>
of them that bare rule
<04910> (8802)_,
and her stature
<06967>
was exalted
<01361> (8799)
among the thick branches
<05688>_,
and she appeared
<07200> (8735)
in her height
<01363>
with the multitude
<07230>
of her branches
<01808>_.
But she was plucked up
<05428> (8714)
in fury
<02534>_,
she was cast down
<07993> (8717)
to the ground
<0776>_,
and the east
<06921>
wind
<07307>
dried up
<03001> (8689)
her fruit
<06529>_:
her strong
<05797>
rods
<04294>
were broken
<06561> (8694)
and withered
<03001> (8804)_;
the fire
<0784>
consumed
<0398> (8804)
them.
And now she [is] planted
<08362> (8803)
in the wilderness
<04057>_,
in a dry
<06723>
and thirsty
<06772>
ground
<0776>_.
And fire
<0784>
is gone out
<03318> (8799)
of a rod
<04294>
of her branches
<0905>_,
[which] hath devoured
<0398> (8804)
her fruit
<06529>_,
so that she hath no strong
<05797>
rod
<04294>
[to be] a sceptre
<07626>
to rule
<04910> (8800)_.
This [is] a lamentation
<07015>_,
and shall be for a lamentation
<07015>_.
