Hosea 13:7

‘Should my head be set on high, You would hunt me like a lion; And again You would show Your wonders against me.

Therefore a lion from the forest will strike them down; A wolf of the deserts will devastate them; A leopard is watching their cities. Everyone who goes out of them will be torn in pieces Because their transgressions are many; Their acts of faithlessness are mighty.

“He has forsaken His hiding place like the lion; For their land has become an object of horror Because of the burning desire of the oppressor And because of His burning anger.”

For I will be like a lion to Ephraim And like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear to pieces and go away; I will carry away, and there will be none to deliver.

And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority.
