Hosea 13:4-8

Hosea 13:4-8 NCV

“I, the LORD, have been your God since you were in the land of Egypt. You should have known no other God except me. I am the only one who saves. I cared for them in the desert where it was hot and dry. I gave them food, and they became full and satisfied. But then they became too proud and forgot me. That is why I will be like a lion to them, like a leopard waiting by the road. I will attack like a bear robbed of her cubs, ripping their bodies open. I will devour them like a lion and tear them apart like a wild animal.
