Hosea 13:7-9
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
7 So I will become like a lion to them,
like a leopard I will lurk beside the way.
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.
9 I will destroy you, O Israel;
who can help you?[a]

7 Therefore I will be unto them as a lion: as a leopard by the way will I observe them:

9 O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself; but in me is thine help.
