'Cubs' in the Bible

Hushai said moreover, "You know your father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are fierce in their minds, like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field. Your father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.

The old lion perishes for lack of prey. The cubs of the lioness are scattered abroad.

Can you lead forth the constellations in their season? Or can you guide the Bear with her cubs?

Let a bear robbed of her cubs meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly.

They shall roar together like young lions; they shall growl as lions' cubs.

and say, What was your mother? A lioness: she couched among lions, in the midst of the young lions she nourished her cubs.

She brought up one of her cubs: he became a young lion, and he learned to catch the prey; he devoured men.

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.

I will meet them like a bear that is bereaved of her cubs, and will tear the covering of their heart. There I will devour them like a lioness. The wild animal will tear them.

Where is the den of the lions, and the feeding place of the young lions, where the lion and the lioness walked, the lion's cubs, and no one made them afraid?

The lion tore in pieces enough for his cubs, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his caves with the kill, and his dens with prey.
