1. Ezekiel, sing a funeral song for two of Israel's leaders:
2. Your mother was a brave lionesswho raised her cubsamong lions.
3. She taught one of them to hunt,and he learnt to eat people.
4. When the nations heard of him,they trapped him in a pit,then they used hooksto drag him to Egypt.
5. His mother waitedfor him to return.But soon she lost all hopeand raised another cub,who also became fierce.
6. He hunted with other lionsand learnt to eat people.
