Ezequiel 19
Zürcher Bibel 1931
1DU aber, stimme du ein Klagelied an über den Fürsten Israels
2und sprich: Wie war doch deine Mutter eine Löwin zwischen Löwen! Sie lagerte inmitten von Leuen, zog gross ihre Jungen.
3Sie brachte eins ihrer Jungen empor, das ward ein Leu; der lernte rauben und frass Menschen.
4Da machten Völker Alarm gegen ihn, in ihrer Grube ward er gefangen, und sie führten ihn an Ringen ins Land Ägypten. (a) 2Kön 23:33 34; Jer 22:11
5Als sie aber sah, dass töricht, dass vernichtet war ihre Hoffnung, nahm sie ein andres ihrer Jungen und machte es zum Leuen;
6der schritt einher unter den Löwen und ward ein Leu, er lernte rauben und frass Menschen. (a) 2Kön 24:8 9
7Er hauste übel in den Wohnstätten, machte öde die Städte; es entsetzte sich das Land und was darin war, vor seinem lauten Gebrüll.
8Da taten sich Völker wider ihn zusammen rings aus den Gauen und spannten ihr Netz über ihn; in ihrer Grube ward er gefangen.
9Sie setzten ihn an Ringen in einen Käfig und brachten ihn in Gewahrsam, dass man seine Stimme nicht höre auf den Bergen Israels.
10Deine Mutter war gleich einer Rebe im Weinberg, an Wassern gepflanzt, voller Früchte und Schosse von dem vielen Wasser. (a) Hes 17:6
11Und es wuchs daran ein mächtiger Ast zu Herrscherstäben, und hoch ward sein Wuchs zwischen den Ranken, weithin sichtbar durch seine Höhe, durch die Fülle seiner Schosse.
12Da ward sie im Grimm ausgerissen, zu Boden geworfen; der Ostwind dörrte sie aus, abgerissen ward ihre Frucht; es verdorrte ihr mächtiger Ast, und Feuer frass ihn. (a) Hes 15:4; 17:10
13Und jetzt ist sie in die Wüste gepflanzt, in dürres, durstiges Land.
14Und Feuer ging aus von dem Aste, das frass ihre Ranken; es blieb an ihr kein mächtiger Ast mehr, kein Stab zum Herrschen. - Ein Klagelied ist dies, ein Klagelied ist es geworden.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Y TÚ levanta endecha sobre los príncipes de Israel.
2Y dirás: ¡Cómo se echó entre los leones tu madre la leona! entre los leoncillos crió sus cachorros.
3E hizo subir uno de sus cachorros: vino á ser leoncillo, y aprendió á prender presa, y á devorar hombres.
4Y las gentes oyeron de él: fué tomado con el lazo de ellas, y lleváronlo con grillos á la tierra de Egipto.
5Y viendo ella que había esperado mucho tiempo, y que se perdía su esperanza, tomó otro de sus cachorros, y púsolo por leoncillo.
6Y él andaba entre los leones; hízose leoncillo, aprendió á hacer presa, devoró hombres.
7Y conoció sus viudas, y asoló sus ciudades; y la tierra fué asolada, y su abundancia, á la voz de su bramido.
8Y dieron sobre él las gentes de las provincias de alrededor, y extendieron sobre él su red; fué preso en su hoyo.
9Y pusiéronlo en cárcel con cadenas, y lleváronlo al rey de Babilonia; metiéronlo en fortalezas, para que su voz no se oyese más sobre los montes de Israel.
10Tu madre fué como una vid en tu sangre, plantada junto á las aguas, haciendo fruto y echando vástagos á causa de las muchas aguas.
11Y ella tuvo varas fuertes para cetros de señores; y levantóse su estatura por encima entre las ramas, y fué vista en su altura, y con la multitud de sus sarmientos.
12Empero fué arrancada con ira, derribada en tierra, y viento solano secó su fruto; fueron quebradas y secáronse sus varas fuertes; consumiólas el fuego.
13Y ahora está plantada en el desierto, en tierra de sequedad y de aridez.
14Y ha salido fuego de la vara de sus ramos, ha consumido su fruto, y no ha quedado en ella vara fuerte, cetro para enseñorear. Endecha es esta, y de endecha servirá.
King James Version
1Moreover take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
2And say, What is thy mother? A lioness: she lay down among lions, she nourished her whelps among young lions.
3And she brought up one of her whelps: it became a young lion, and it learned to catch the prey; it devoured men.
4The nations also heard of him; he was taken in their pit, and they brought him with chains unto the land of Egypt.
5Now when she saw that she had waited, and her hope was lost, then she took another of her whelps, and made him a young lion.
6And he went up and down among the lions, he became a young lion, and learned to catch the prey, and devoured men.
7And he knew their desolate palaces, and he laid waste their cities; and the land was desolate, and the fulness thereof, by the noise of his roaring.
8Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces, and spread their net over him: he was taken in their pit.
9And they put him in ward in chains, and brought him to the king of Babylon: they brought him into holds, that his voice should no more be heard upon the mountains of Israel.
10Thy mother is like a vine in thy blood, planted by the waters: she was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.
11And she had strong rods for the sceptres of them that bare rule, and her stature was exalted among the thick branches, and she appeared in her height with the multitude of her branches.
12But she was plucked up in fury, she was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up her fruit: her strong rods were broken and withered; the fire consumed them.
13And now she is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty ground.
14And fire is gone out of a rod of her branches, which hath devoured her fruit, so that she hath no strong rod to be a sceptre to rule. This is a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation.

1“Moreover, take up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
2and say, ‘What was your mother? A lioness. She couched among lions, in the middle of the young lions she nourished her cubs.
3She brought up one of her cubs. He became a young lion. He learned to catch the prey. He devoured men.
4The nations also heard of him. He was taken in their pit; and they brought him with hooks to the land of Egypt.
5“‘Now when she saw that she had waited, and her hope was lost, then she took another of her cubs, and made him a young lion.
6He went up and down among the lions. He became a young lion. He learned to catch the prey. He devoured men.
7He knew their palaces, and laid waste their cities. The land was desolate with its fullness, because of the noise of his roaring.
8Then the nations attacked him on every side from the provinces. They spread their net over him. He was taken in their pit.
9They put him in a cage with hooks, and brought him to the king of Babylon. They brought him into strongholds, so that his voice should no more be heard on the mountains of Israel.
10“‘Your mother was like a vine in your blood, planted by the waters. It was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.
11It had strong branches for the scepters of those who ruled. Their stature was exalted among the thick boughs. They were seen in their height with the multitude of their branches.
12But it was plucked up in fury. It was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up its fruit. Its strong branches were broken off and withered. The fire consumed them.
13Now it is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty land.
14Fire has gone out of its branches. It has devoured its fruit, so that there is in it no strong branch to be a scepter to rule.’ This is a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation.”
