Hosea 13:4-8
Legacy Standard Bible
4 Yet I have been (A)Yahweh your God
Since the land of Egypt;
And you were not to know (B)any god except Me,
And there is no savior (C)besides Me.
5 I Myself (D)knew you in the wilderness,
(E)In the land of drought.
6 As they had their pasture, then they became (F)satisfied,
Indeed, they were satisfied, and their (G)heart became raised up;
Therefore they (H)forgot Me.
7 So I will be (I)like a lion to them;
Like a (J)leopard I will [a]lie in wait by the wayside.
8 I will encounter them (K)like a bear robbed of her cubs,
And I will tear open [b]the chest enclosing their heart;
There I will also (L)devour them like a lioness,
As a beast of the field would rip them open.

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
4 Yet I have been the Lord your God
ever since the land of Egypt;
you know no God but me,
and besides me there is no savior.(A)
5 It was I who fed[a] you in the wilderness,
in the land of drought.(B)
6 When I fed[b] them, they were satisfied;
they were satisfied, and their heart was proud;
therefore they forgot me.(C)
7 So I will become like a lion to them;
like a leopard I will lurk beside the way.(D)
8 I will fall upon them like a bear robbed of her cubs
and will tear open the covering of their heart;
there I will devour them like a lion,
as a wild animal would mangle them.

New International Version
4 “But I have been the Lord your God
ever since you came out of Egypt.(A)
You shall acknowledge(B) no God but me,(C)
no Savior(D) except me.
5 I cared for you in the wilderness,(E)
in the land of burning heat.
6 When I fed them, they were satisfied;
when they were satisfied, they became proud;(F)
then they forgot(G) me.(H)
7 So I will be like a lion(I) to them,
like a leopard I will lurk by the path.
8 Like a bear robbed of her cubs,(J)
I will attack them and rip them open;
like a lion(K) I will devour them—
a wild animal will tear them apart.(L)
