39 Can you hunt prey for a lion

Or satisfy the appetites of young lions+

40 When they crouch in their lairs

Or lie in ambush in their dens?

14 For I will be like a young lion to Eʹphra·im,

And like a strong lion* to the house of Judah.

I myself will tear to pieces and go away;+

I will carry them off, and no one will rescue them.+

19 It will be like a man who flees from a lion and is confronted by a bear,

And when he enters his house and leans his hand against the wall, a snake bites him.
