“Let us tear their fetters apart
And cast away their cords from us!”

Or he will tear my soul like a lion,
Dragging me away, while there is none to deliver.

He is like a lion that is eager to tear,
And as a young lion lurking in hiding places.

Because they do not regard the works of the Lord
Nor the deeds of His hands,
He will tear them down and not build them up.

“Now consider this, you who forget God,
Or I will tear you in pieces, and there will be none to deliver.

But God will break you down forever;
He will snatch you up and tear you away from your tent,
And uproot you from the land of the living. Selah.
