Hosea 13:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵I took care of you in the wilderness,
where it was very hot and dry.
⁶I gave food to my people, so that they were not hungry.
But when they had enough to eat, they became proud.
As a result, they forgot about me.^[a]
⁷So I will attack them like a lion.
I will be like a leopard that waits beside the road.
It is ready to catch anything that goes that way.
