Ezekiel 19:5-7

Good News Translation

⁵ She waited until she saw all hope was gone.
Then she raised another of her cubs,
    and he grew into a fierce lion.
⁶ When he was full-grown,
    he prowled with the other lions.
He too learned to hunt and eat people.
⁷ He wrecked forts,^[a] he ruined towns.
The people of the land were terrified
    every time he roared.
