1. You, raise a lament for Israel’s princes.
2. Say:What a lioness among lionesses was your mother!She bedded down among the strong young lions and reared her cubs.
3. She singled out one of her cubs and he became a strong young lion;he learned to tear flesh and devour humans.
4. When the nations heard about him, they caught him in their trapand carried him with hooks to the land of Egypt.
