Gill's Notes on the Bible
Moreover, take thou up a lamentation,.... These words are directed to the Prophet Ezekiel, to compose a doleful ditty, a mournful song, such as was used at funerals; and by it represent the lamentable state of the nation of the Jews and their governors, in order to affect them with it, with what was past, and present, and yet to come:
for the princes of Israel; or, "concerning them" s; the princes meant are Jehoahaz, Jehoiakim, Jeconiah, and Zedekiah, who were kings, though called princes, these words being synonymous; or, if so called by way of diminution, the reason might be, because they were tributary, either to the king of Egypt, or king of Babylon.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Princes of Israel - Israel is the whole nation over which the king of Judah was the rightful sovereign. Compare Ezekiel 2:3; Ezekiel 3:1, Ezekiel 3:7.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XIX
This chapter contains two beautiful examples of the parabolic
kind of writing; the one lamenting the sad catastrophe of
Jehoahaz and Jehoiakim, 1-9,
and the other describing the desolation and captivity of the
whole people, 10-14.
In the first parable, the lioness is Jerusalem. The first of
the young lions is Jehoahaz, deposed by the king of Egypt; and
the second lion is Jehoiakim, whose rebellion drew on himself
the vengeance of the king of Babylon. In the second parable the
vine is the Jewish nation, which long prospered, its land being
fertile, its princes powerful, and its people flourishing; but
the judgments of God, in consequence of their guilt, had now
destroyed a great part of the people, and doomed the rest to
captivity.
NOTES ON CHAP. XIX
Verse Ezekiel 19:1. Moreover take thou up a lamentation — Declare what is the great subject of sorrow in Israel. Compose a funeral dirge. Show the melancholy fate of the kings who proceeded from Josiah. The prophet deplores the misfortune of Jehoahaz and Jehoiakim, under the figure of two lion whelps, which were taken by hunters, and confined in cages. Next he shows the desolation of Jerusalem under Zedekiah, which he compares to a beautiful vine pulled up by the roots, withered, and at last burned. Calmet justly observes, that the style of this song is beautiful, and the allegory well supported throughout.
