11 Where is the dwelling of the (A)lions,
And the feeding place of the young lions,
Where the lion walked, the lioness and lion’s cub,
And no one made them afraid?
12 The lion tore in pieces enough for his cubs,
[a]Killed for his lionesses,
(B)Filled his caves with prey,
And his dens with [b]flesh.
