Bible Verses About Lion: Parable of

"Moreover, raise a lament for the leaders of Isra'el;

say: 'What a mother you had a lioness among lions! She lay down among young lions and reared her cubs.

One of her cubs she singled out: he became a young lion, he learned to seize his prey, he became a man-eater.

The nations sounded an alarm against him; and he was caught in their pit. With hooks they dragged him off to the land of Egypt.

When she saw that she had been thwarted, that her hope was lost, she took another of her cubs and made a young lion of him.

He prowled among the lions, grew to be a young lion, learned to seize his prey and became a man-eater.

He raped their widows and destroyed their cities; the land and all in it were appalled at the sound of his roaring.

The nations set a snare for him from the provinces all around, they spread their net over him, and he was caught in their pit.

With hooks they put him in a cage and brought him to the king of Bavel to imprison him in a fortress, so that his roar would be heard no more on the mountains of Isra'el.
