Moreover take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
2And say: Why did thy mother the lioness lie down among the lions, and bring up her whelps in the midst of young lions?
3And she brought out one of her whelps, and he became a lion: and he learned to catch the prey, and to devour men.

And you, take up a lamentation for the princes of Israel, and say:
What was your mother? A lioness!
Among lions she crouched;
in the midst of young lions
she reared her cubs.
And she brought up one of her cubs;
he became a young lion,
and he learned to catch prey;
he devoured men.
