4:3 Therefore the land will mourn,
and all its inhabitants will perish.
The wild animals,
and even the fish in the sea will perish.
13:8 I will attack them like a bear robbed of her cubs –
I will rip open their chests.
I will devour them there like a lion –
like a wild animal would tear them apart.
14:8 O Ephraim, I do not want to have anything to do
I will answer him and care for him.
I am like
your fruitfulness comes from me!
