¹¹ Where is the lions’^[a] den
    and the place where they feed their young?
Where did the lion, lioness, and cubs go
    without being afraid?
¹² The lion killed enough for his cubs,
    enough for his mate.
He filled his cave with the animals he caught;
    he filled his den with meat he had killed.

¹³ “I am against you, Nineveh,”
    says the Lord All-Powerful.
“I will burn up your chariots in smoke,
    and the sword will kill your young lions.
    I will stop you from hunting down others on the earth,
and your messengers’ voices
    will no longer be heard.”
