2 And say: Why did thy mother the lioness lie down among the lions, and bring up her whelps in the midst of young lions? 3 And she brought out one of her whelps, and he became a lion: and he learned to catch the prey, and to devour men. 4 And the nations heard of him, and took him, but not without receiving wounds: and they brought him in chains into the land of Egypt. 5 But she seeing herself weakened, and that her hope was lost, took one of her young lions, and set him up for a lion.
