Ezekiel 19:3-5
Amplified Bible

‘When she [the royal mother-city] brought up [Jehoahaz] one of her cubs,
He became a [young] lion,
And he learned to catch and tear the prey;
He devoured men.(A)

‘The nations heard about him;
He was captured in their pit,
And they brought him with hooks
To the land of Egypt.(B)

That her hope was lost,
She took [a]another of her cubs
And made him a young lion.(C)
