3 Therefore they will be like the morning mist,like the early dew that disappears,like chaff swirling from a threshing-floor,like smoke escaping through a window.
4 ‘But I have been the Lord your Godever since you came out of Egypt.You shall acknowledge no God but me,no Saviour except me.
5 I cared for you in the wilderness,in the land of burning heat.
6 When I fed them, they were satisfied;when they were satisfied, they became proud;then they forgot me.
7 So I will be like a lion to them,like a leopard I will lurk by the path.
8 Like a bear robbed of her cubs,I will attack them and rip them open;like a lion I will devour them –a wild animal will tear them apart.
9 ‘You are destroyed, Israel,because you are against me, against your helper.
