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?

The lion hath roared; who will not fear? The Lord Jehovah hath spoken; who can but prophesy?

Thus saith Jehovah: As the shepherd rescueth out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear, so shall the children of Israel be rescued that sit in Samaria in the corner of a couch, and on the silken cushions of a bed.

As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
