“So like a lion I will pounce on them; like a leopard I will lurk by the path.”
Hosea 13:7 (BSB)
Context Reading
5I knew you in the wilderness, in the land of drought. 6When they had pasture, they became satisfied; when they were satisfied, their hearts became proud, and as a result they forgot Me. 7So like a lion I will pounce on them; like a leopard I will lurk by the path. 8Like a bear robbed of her cubs I will attack them, and I will tear open their chests. There I will devour them like a lion, like a wild beast tearing them apart. 9You are destroyed, O Israel, because you are against Me — against your helper.
