Ezekiel 19

1 Moreover, take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,

And you take up a lamentation because of [the] princes of Israel.

2 and say: How was thy mother a lioness; among lions she couched, in the midst of the young lions she reared her whelps!

And you will say what? [was] mother your a lioness between lions she lay down in among young lions she reared cubs her.

3 And she brought up one of her whelps, he became a young lion; and he learned to catch the prey, he devoured men.

And she brought up one of cubs her a young lion it was and it learned to tear prey human[s] it devoured.

4 Then the nations assembled against him, he was taken in their pit; and they brought him with hooks unto the land of Egypt.

And they heard concerning it nations in pit their it was caught and they brought it with hooks to [the] land of Egypt.

5 Now when she saw that she was disappointed, and her hope was lost, then she took another of her whelps, and made him a young lion.

And she saw that she waited it was lost hope her and she took one of cubs her a young lion she made it.

6 And he went up and down among the lions, he became a young lion; and he learned to catch the prey, he devoured men.

And it went about in among lions a young lion it was and it learned to tear prey human[s] it devoured.

7 And he knew their castles, and laid waste their cities; and the land was desolate, and the fulness thereof, because of the noise of his roaring.

And it knew widows its and cities their it laid waste and it was desolate [the] land and what fills it from [the] sound of roaring its.

8 Then the nations cried out against him on every side from the provinces; and they spread their net over him, he was taken in their pit.

And they set on it nations all around from provinces and they spread out over it net their in pit their it was caught.

9 And they put him in a cage with hooks, and brought him to the king of Babylon; that they might bring him into strongholds, so that his voice should no more be heard upon the mountains of Israel.

And they put it in cage with hooks and they brought it to [the] king of Babylon they brought it in strongholds so that not it will be heard voice its again to [the] mountains of Israel.

10 Thy mother was like a vine, in thy likeness, planted by the waters; she was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.

Mother your like vine in blood your at water planted fruitful and full of branches it was from waters many.

11 And she had strong rods to be sceptres for them that bore rule; and her stature was exalted among the thick branches, and she was seen in her height with the multitude of her tendrils.

And they belonged to it branches of strength to scepters of rulers and it was lofty stature its above between branches and it was seen by height its by [the] abundance of branches its.

12 But she was plucked up in fury, she was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up her fruit; her strong rods were broken off and withered, the fire consumed her.

And it was plucked up in rage to the ground it was thrown down and [the] wind of the east it dried up fruit its they were torn off and they became dry [the] branch of strength its a fire it consumed it.

13 And now she is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty ground.

And now [it is] planted in the wilderness in a land dry and thirst.

14 And fire is gone out of the rod of her branches, it hath devoured her fruit, so that there is in her no strong rod to be a sceptre to rule.' This is a lamentation, and it was for a lamentation.

And it went out fire from [the] branch of shoots its fruit its it consumed and not it was in it a branch of strength a scepter to rule [is] a lamentation it and it has become a lamentation.
