¹² The lion killed^(A) enough for his cubs
    and strangled the prey for his mate,
filling his lairs^(B) with the kill
    and his dens with the prey.^(C)

⁸ The remnant of Jacob will be among the nations,
    in the midst of many peoples,
like a lion among the beasts of the forest,^(A)
    like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
which mauls and mangles^(B) as it goes,
    and no one can rescue.^(C)

“As a shepherd rescues from the lion’s^(A) mouth
    only two leg bones or a piece of an ear,
so will the Israelites living in Samaria be rescued,
    with only the head of a bed
    and a piece of fabric^[a] from a couch.^[b](B)”
