Hosea 13:4-8
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.
Hosea 13:4-8
International Standard Version
The Lord is Israel’s God
4 “I am the Lord your God
from the land of Egypt,
and you have known no god except for me,
because except for me there is no savior.
5 I took care of[a] you in the wilderness,
in a waterless land.
6 As their pastures flourished,
all their desires were met.[b]
As they were satiated,
they became arrogant
and therefore ignored me.
7 “So I will be like a lion to them.
Like a leopard I will stalk them along the road.
8 I will confront them like a bear deprived of her cubs;[c]
I will tear open their ribs.
I will devour them like a lion—
the wild beasts will rip them apart.
