“Israel is a scattered sheep; the lions have driven him away: first the king of Assyria hath devoured him; and last this Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath broken his bones.”
Israel is a hunted lamb; first Assyria devoured it, now Nebuchadrezzar has gnawed its bones. The historical narrative establishes pattern of oppression.
