Hosea 13:7
_ _ (Hosea 5:14; Lamentations 3:10).
_ _ leopard The Hebrew comes from a root meaning “spotted” (compare Jeremiah 13:23). Leopards lurk in thickets and thence spring on their victims.
_ _ observe that is, lie in wait for them. Several manuscripts, the Septuagint, Vulgate, Syriac, and Arabic read, by a slight change of the Hebrew vowel pointing, “by the way of Assyria,” a region abounding in leopards and lions. English Version is better. |
Hosea 13:7
Observe them Watch for them, that I might be sure to take them. |
Hosea 5:14 For I [ will be] unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, [ even] I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue [ him]. Isaiah 42:13 The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies. Jeremiah 5:6 Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, [and] a wolf of the evenings shall spoil them, a leopard shall watch over their cities: every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces: because their transgressions are many, [ and] their backslidings are increased. Lamentations 3:10 He [ was] unto me [ as] a bear lying in wait, [ and as] a lion in secret places. Amos 1:2 And he said, The LORD will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the habitations of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither. Amos 3:4 Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing? Amos 3:8 The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
