Ezekiel 19:3-5

Living Bible

³ One of her cubs, King Jehoahaz,^[a] grew into a strong young lion and learned to catch prey and became a man-eater. ⁴ Then the nations called out their hunters; they trapped him in a pit and brought him in chains to Egypt.

⁵ “When Israel, the mother lion, saw that all her hopes for him were gone, she took another of her cubs, King Jehoiachin,^[b] and taught him to be ‘king of the beasts.’
