2 “You only have I known of all the families of the earth;Therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.”
3 Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?
4 Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey?Will a young lion cry out of his den, if he has caught nothing?
5 Will a bird fall into a snare on the earth, where there is no trap for it?Will a snare spring up from the earth, if it has caught nothing at all?
6 If a trumpet is blown in a city, will not the people be afraid?If there is calamity in a city, will not the Lord have done it?
7 Surely the Lord God does nothing,Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.
8 A lion has roared!Who will not fear?The Lord God has spoken!Who can but prophesy?
