Nahum 2:12-13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
12 Where is the lionesses’ den,
the young lions’ cave,
Where the lion[a] went in and out,
and the cub, with no one to disturb them?(A)
13 The lion tore apart enough for his cubs,
and strangled for his lionesses;
He filled his lairs with prey,
and his dens with torn flesh.
