Hosea 13:7-9
Holman Christian Standard Bible
7 So I will be like a lion(A) to them;
I will lurk like a leopard(B) 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,(C)
like a wild beast that would rip them open.
9 I will destroy you, Israel;
you have no help but Me.[a](D)
