In context
1When Ephraim spoke, there was trembling; 2Now they sin more and more 3Therefore they will be like the morning mist, 4Yet I am the LORD your God 5I knew you in the wilderness, 6When they had pasture, 7So like a lion I will pounce on them; 8Like a bear robbed of her cubs I will attack them,
