A lamentation for the princes of Israel, under the parable of lions' whelps taken in a pit,1 ¶ Moreover take thou upºª² a lamentationº for² the princesº of Israel,º 2 And say,ºª What² [is] thy mother?º A lioness:º she lay downºª among² lions,º she nourishedºª her whelpsº amongº young lions.º 3 And she brought upºª oneº of her whelps:º² it became² a young lion,º and it learnedºª to catchºª the prey;º it devouredºª men.º 4 The nationsº also heardºª of² him; he was takenºª in their pit,º and they broughtºª him with chainsº unto² the landº of Egypt.º 5 Now when she sawºª that² she had waited,ºª [and] her hopeº was lost,ºª then she tookºª anotherº of her whelps,º² [and] madeºª him a young lion.º 6 And he went up and downºª amongº the lions,º he became² a young lion,º and learnedºª to catchºª the prey,º [and] devouredºª men.º 7 And he knewºª their desolate palaces,¹² and he laid wasteºª their cities;º and the landº was desolate,ºª and the fulnessº thereof, by the noiseº² of his roaring.º 8 Then the nationsº setºª against² him on every sideº from the provinces,º² and spreadºª their netº over² him: he was takenºª in their pit.º 9 And they putºª him in wardº in chains,º and broughtºª him to² the kingº of Babylon:º they broughtºª him into holds,¹² that² his voiceº should no² more² be heardºª upon² the mountainsº of Israel.º [1] 2K 23:29, 34; 24:6, 12; 25:5; 2Ch 35:25; 36:3, 6, 10; Jr 9:1, 10, 17; 13:17; 22:10, 18, 28, 30; 24:1, 8; 52:10, 25; Lm 4:20; 5:12; Ezk 2:10; 19:14; 26:17; 27:2; 32:16, 18.
