So I will be like a lion. Like a leopard I will wait by the road to ambush you. Like a bear that has lost her cubs, I will attack you. I will rip you open. Like a lion I will devour you. Like a wild animal I will tear you apart. You are destroying yourself, Israel. You are against me, your helper. Where, now, is your king, the one who is supposed to save you? Where in all your cities are your judges? You said: 'Give us kings and officials!' I gave you a king when I was angry, and I took him away when I was furious.
