'Lioness' in the Bible
Judah is a young lion—my son, you return from the kill.He crouches; he lies down like a lionor a lioness—who dares to rouse him?
A people rise up like a lioness;They rouse themselves like a lion.They will not lie down until they devour the preyand drink the blood of the slain.
He crouches, he lies down like a lionor a lioness—who dares to rouse him?Those who bless you will be blessed,and those who curse you will be cursed.
The strong lion dies if it catches no prey,and the cubs of the lioness are scattered.
Can you hunt prey for a lionessor satisfy the appetite of young lions
An oracle about the animals of the Negev:Through a land of trouble and distress,of lioness and lion,of viper and flying serpent,they carry their wealth on the backs of donkeysand their treasures on the humps of camels,to a people who will not help them.
and say:What was your mother? A lioness!She lay down among the lions;she reared her cubs among the young lions.
I will attack themlike a bear robbed of her cubsand tear open the rib cage over their hearts.I will devour them there like a lioness,like a wild beast that would rip them open.
For a nation has invaded My land,powerful and without number;its teeth are the teeth of a lion,and it has the fangs of a lioness.
Where is the lions’ lair,or the feeding ground of the young lions,where the lion and lioness prowled,and the lion’s cub,with nothing to frighten them away?
