6 When I fed them, they were satisfied;when satisfied, they became proud,therefore they forgot me.
7 So, I will be like a lion to them,like a leopard by the road I will keep watch.
8 I will attack them like a bear robbed of its young,and tear their hearts from their breasts;I will devour them on the spot like a lion,as a wild animal would rip them open.
9 I destroy you, Israel!who is there to help you?
10 Where now is your king,that he may rescue you?And all your princes,that they may defend you?Of whom you said,“Give me a king and princes”?
11 I give you a king in my anger,and I take him away in my wrath.
12 The guilt of Ephraim is wrapped up,his sin is stored away.
