Ezekiel 19 :: Brenton's English Septuagint (BES)

Lament for the Princes of Israel

Eze 19:1Moreover do thou take up a lamentation for the prince of Israel,

Eze 19:2and say, Why is thy mother become a whelp in the midst of lions? in the midst of lions she has multiplied her whelps.

Eze 19:3

Eze 19:3And one of her whelps sprang forth; he became a lion, and learned to take prey, he devoured men.

Eze 19:4

Eze 19:4And the nations heard a report of him; he was caught in their pit, and they brought him into the land of Egypt in chains.

Eze 19:5

Eze 19:5And she saw that he was driven away from her, and her hope of him perished, and she took another of her whelps; she made him a lion.

Eze 19:6

Eze 19:6And he went up and down in the midst of lions, he became a lion, and learned to take prey, he devoured men.

Eze 19:7

Eze 19:7And he prowled in his boldness and laid waste their cities, and made the land desolate, and the fulness of it, by the voice of his roaring.

Eze 19:8

Eze 19:8Then the nations set upon him from the countries round about, and they spread their nets upon him: he was taken in their pit.

Eze 19:9

Eze 19:9And they put him in chains and in a cage, and he came to the king of Babylon; and he cast him into prison, that his voice should not be heard on the mountains of Israel.

Eze 19:10

Eze 19:10Thy mother was as a vine and as a blossom on a pomegranate tree, planted by water: her fruit and her shoots abounded by reason of much water.

Eze 19:11

Eze 19:11And she became a rod for a tribe of princes, and was elevated in her bulk in the midst of other trees, and she saw her bulk in the multitude of her branches.

Eze 19:12

Eze 19:12But she was broken down in wrath, she was cast upon the ground, and the east wind dried up her choice branches: vengeance came upon them, and the rod of her strength was withered; fire consumed it.

Eze 19:13

Eze 19:13And now they have planted her in the wilderness, in a dry land.

Eze 19:14

Eze 19:14And fire is gone out of a rod of her choice boughs, and has devoured her; and there was no rod of strength in her. Her race is become a parable of lamentation, and it shall be for a lamentation.
