1 | Moreover, take up a lamentation for the princes of Israel, | Ezk 19:14 Ezk 2:10 Ezk 26:17 Ezk 27:2 Ezk 32:16 Ezk 32:18 Jer 9:1 Jer 9:10 Jer 9:17 Jer 9:18 Jer 13:17 Jer 13:18 |
2 | and say, What was your mother? A lioness: she couched among lions, in the midst of the young lions she nourished her whelps. | Nah 2:11 Nah 2:12 Zep 3:1-4 |
3 | She brought up one of her whelps: he became a young lion, and he learned to catch the prey; he devoured men. | Ezk 19:6 2Ki 23:31 2Ki 23:32 2Ch 36:1 2Ch 36:2 |
4 | The nations also heard of him; he was taken in their pit; and they brought him with hooks to the land of Egypt. | 2Ki 23:31 2Ki 23:33 2Ki 23:34 2Ch 36:4 2Ch 36:6 Jer 22:11 Jer 22:12 Jer 22:18 |
5 | Now when she saw that she had waited, and her hope was lost, then she took another of her whelps, and made him a young lion. | Ezk 19:3 2Ki 23:34-37 |
6 | He went up and down among the lions; he became a young lion, and he learned to catch the prey; he devoured men. | 2Ki 24:1-7 2Ch 36:5 Jer 22:13-17 Jer 26:1-24 Jer 36:1-32 |
7 | He knew their palaces, and laid waste their cities; and the land was desolate, and the fullness of it, because of the noise of his roaring. | Ezk 22:25 Pr 19:12 Pr 28:3 Pr 28:15 Pr 28:16 |
8 | Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces; and they spread their net over him; he was taken in their pit. | 2Ki 24:1-6 |
9 | They put him in a cage with hooks, and brought him to the king of Babylon; they brought him into strongholds, that his voice should no more be heard on the mountains of Israel. | 2Ch 36:6 Jer 22:18 Jer 22:19 Jer 36:30 Jer 36:31 |
10 | Your mother was like a vine, in your blood, planted by the waters: it was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters. | Ezk 19:2 Hos 2:2 Hos 2:5 |
11 | It had strong rods for the scepters of those who bore rule, and their stature was exalted among the thick boughs, and they were seen in their height with the multitude of their branches. | Ezk 19:12 Ezk 19:14 Ezk 21:10 Ezk 21:13 Gn 49:10 Nm 24:7-9 Nm 24:17-9 Ezr 4:20 Ezr 5:11 Ps 2:8 Ps 2:9 Ps 80:15 Ps 80:17 Ps 110:2 Isa 11:1 |
12 | But it was plucked up in fury, it was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up its fruit: its strong rods were broken off and withered; the fire consumed them. | Ezk 15:6-8 Ps 52:5 Ps 80:12 Ps 80:13 Ps 80:16 Ps 89:40-45 Isa 5:5 Isa 5:6 Jer 31:28 |
13 | Now it is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty land. | Ezk 19:10 Dt 28:47 Dt 28:48 Jer 52:27-31 |
14 | Fire is gone out of the rods of its branches, it has devoured its fruit, so that there is in it no strong rod to be a scepter to rule. This is a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation. | Ezk 17:18-20 Jg 9:15 2Ki 24:20 2Ch 36:13 Isa 9:18 Isa 9:19 Jer 38:23 Jer 52:3 |
