11 Where is the lions’[a] den?
    Where do they feed their young?
Where did the lion, lioness and cubs go?
    Where were they not afraid?
12 The lion killed enough for his cubs.
    He killed it for his mate.
He filled his cave with the animals he caught.
    He filled his den with what he had killed.

13 “I am against you, Nineveh,”
    says the Lord of heaven’s armies.
“I will burn up your chariots in smoke.
    And I will kill your young lions with a sword.
    I will stop you from hunting down others on the earth.
Your messengers’ voices
    will no longer be heard.”
