Ezekiel 19:5-10
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 19
5When she saw, as she waited, That her hope was lost, She took another of her cubs And made him a young lion. 6And he walked about among the lions, He became a young lion; He learned to tear his prey; He devoured people. 7He destroyed their palaces And laid waste their cities; And the land and its fullness were appalled Because of the sound of his roaring. 8Then nations set against him On every side from their provinces, And they spread their net over him; He was caught in their trap. 9They put him in a wooden collar with hooks And brought him to the king of Babylon; They brought him in hunting nets So that his voice would no longer be heard On the mountains of Israel. 10Your mother was like a vine in your vineyard, Planted by the waters; It was fruitful and thick with branches Because of abundant waters.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 19
5When she saw that she waited in vain, that her hope was lost, she took another of her cubs and made him a young lion. 6He prowled among the lions, and he became a young lion. After he learned to tear prey, he devoured people. 7He devastated their strongholds and destroyed their cities. The land and everything in it shuddered at the sound of his roaring. 8Then the nations from the surrounding provinces set out against him. They spread their net over him; he was caught in their pit.
9They put a wooden yoke on him with hooks and led him away to the king of Babylon. They brought him into the fortresses so his roar could no longer be heard on the mountains of Israel.
10Your mother was like a vine in your vineyard, planted by the water; it was fruitful and full of branches because of abundant water.
New Living Translation
Chapter 19
5'When the lioness saw that her hopes for him were gone, she took another of her cubs and taught him to be a strong young lion. 6He prowled among the other lions and stood out among them in his strength. He learned to hunt and devour prey, and he, too, became a man-eater. 7He demolished fortresses and destroyed their towns and cities. Their farms were desolated, and their crops were destroyed. The land and its people trembled in fear when they heard him roar. 8Then the armies of the nations attacked him, surrounding him from every direction. They threw a net over him and captured him in their pit. 9With hooks, they dragged him into a cage and brought him before the king of Babylon. They held him in captivity, so his voice could never again be heard on the mountains of Israel.English Standard Version
Chapter 19
5When she saw that she waited in vain, that her hope was lost, she took another of her cubs and made him a young lion. 6He prowled among the lions; he became a young lion, and he learned to catch prey; he devoured men, 7and seized their widows. He laid waste their cities, and the land was appalled and all who were in it at the sound of his roaring. 8 Then the nations set against him from provinces on every side; they spread their net over him; he was taken in their pit. 9With hooks they put him in a cage and brought him to the king of Babylon; they brought him into custody, that his voice should no more be heard on the mountains of Israel. 10Your mother was like a vine in a vineyard planted by the water, fruitful and full of branches by reason of abundant water.New International Version
Chapter 19
5" ‘When she saw her hope unfulfilled, her expectation gone, she took another of her cubs and made him a strong lion. 6He prowled among the lions, for he was now a strong lion. He learned to tear the prey and he became a man-eater. 7He broke down their strongholds and devastated their towns. The land and all who were in it were terrified by his roaring. 8Then the nations came against him, those from regions round about. They spread their net for him, and he was trapped in their pit.New King James Version
