'Devour' in the Bible

Will those who do evil ever learn? They devour my people like they devour bread, and never call on the LORD.

When you appear, you will set them ablaze like a fire furnace. In his wrath, the LORD will consume them, and the fire will devour them.

When those who practice evil, my enemies, and my oppressors come near me to devour my flesh, they stumble and fall.
