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

2 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 cubs her a young lion it was and it learned to tear prey human[s] it devoured.

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

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

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

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

14 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.
