Hosea 13:3-9 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

3. Therefore, they will be like the morning cloud, and like the dew of early morning going away, like chaff swirling from the threshing floor, or like smoke from a window.

4. I am Yahweh your God since the land of Egypt; you know no god except me, and no one saves besides me.

5. I fed you in the desert, in the land of drought.

6. When I fed them, they were satisfied; they were satisfied and their heart was lifted up; therefore they forgot me.

7. And I will be like a lion to them; I lie in wait beside the way, like a leopard.

8. I will attack them like a bear robbed of her offspring, and I will tear open the covering of their heart; there I will devour them like a lion, like an animal of the field would mutilate them.

9. I will destroy you, O Israel; who will help you?
