4 ¿Bramará el león en el monte sin hacer presa? ¿dará el leoncillo su bramido desde su morada, si no prendiere?

5 ¿Caerá el ave en el lazo en la tierra, sin haber armador? ¿alzaráse el lazo de la tierra, si no se ha prendido algo?

6 ¿Tocaráse la trompeta en la ciudad, y no se alborotará el pueblo? ¿habrá algún mal en la ciudad, el cual Jehová no haya hecho?

7 Porque no hará nada el Señor Jehová, sin que revele su secreto á sus siervos los profetas.

8 Bramando el león, ¿quién no temerá? hablando el Señor Jehová, ¿quién no profetizará?
