“The lion perishes for lack of prey,
And the whelps of the lioness are scattered.

“They slip by like reed boats,
Like an eagle that swoops on its prey.

“The path no bird of prey knows,
Nor has the falcon’s eye caught sight of it.

“I broke the jaws of the wicked
And snatched the prey from his teeth.

“Can you hunt the prey for the lion,
Or satisfy the appetite of the young lions,
