Hosea 13:8-10

Modern English Version

⁸I will attack them like a bear bereaved of her cubs,
and will tear open their rib cage.
There I will devour them like a lion,
as the wild beast would tear them to pieces.

⁹O Israel, you are destroyed,^[a]
    but in Me is your help.
¹⁰Where now is your king
    that he may save you in all your cities?
And where are your judges of whom you said,
    “Give me a king and princes”?
