Hosea 13:4 - 13:8

Yet I have been Yahweh your God

Since the land of Egypt;

And you were not to know any god except Me,

And there is no savior besides Me.

I Myself knew you in the wilderness,

In the land of drought.

As they had their pasture, then they became satisfied,

Indeed, they were satisfied, and their heart became raised up;

Therefore they forgot Me.

So I will be like a lion to them;

Like a leopard I will lie in wait by the wayside.

I will encounter them like a bear robbed of her cubs,

And I will tear open the chest enclosing their heart;

There I will also devour them like a lioness,

As a beast of the field would rip them open.
