Hosea 13:7 in Context — Hosea 13

5 Yo te conocí en el desierto, en tierra seca.

6 En sus pastos se hartaron, hartáronse, y ensoberbecióse su corazón: por esta causa se olvidaron de mí.

7 Por tanto, yo seré para ellos como león; como un leopardo en el camino los espiaré.

8 Como oso que ha perdido los hijos los encontraré, y romperé las telas de su corazón, y allí los devoraré como león: bestia del campo los despedazará.

9 Te perdiste, oh Israel, mas en mí [está] tu ayuda.
