Ezekiel 19:6-8

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁶ He prowled among the lions;
    he became a young lion,
and he learned to catch prey;
    he devoured men.
⁷ And he ravaged their strongholds,^[a]
    and laid waste their cities;
and the land was appalled and all who were in it
    at the sound of his roaring.
⁸ Then the nations set against him
    snares^[b] on every side;
they spread their net over him;
    he was taken in their pit.
