Hosea 13:6-8
Christian Standard Bible
6 When they had pasture,
they became satisfied;(A)
they were satisfied,
and their hearts became proud.(B)
Therefore they forgot me.(C)
7 So I will be like a lion(D) to them;
I will lurk like a leopard(E) on the path.
8 I will attack them
like a bear robbed of her cubs
and tear open the rib cage over their hearts.
I will devour them there like a lioness,(F)
like a wild beast that would rip them open.
Hosea 13:6-8
King James Version
6 According to their pasture, so were they filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted; therefore have they forgotten me.
7 Therefore I will be unto them as a lion: as a leopard by the way will I observe them:
8 I will meet them as a bear that is bereaved of her whelps, and will rend the caul of their heart, and there will I devour them like a lion: the wild beast shall tear them.

you became proud and forgot me.
