Ezekiel 19:6

A Lament for the Princes of Israel

5When she saw that she had waited in vain, that her hope was lost, she took another of her cubs and made him a young lion. 6He prowled among the lions, and became a young lion. After learning to tear his prey, he devoured men. 7He broke down their strongholds and devastated their cities. The land and everything in it shuddered at the sound of his roaring.
