'Bear' in the Bible

It will be like a man who runs from a lion, only to encounter a bear; or who comes home, leans his hand against a wall, and a serpent bites him!

So Amaziah priest of Bethel sent a message to Jeroboam king of Israel. It said, "Amos has been conspiring against you in the very heart of the house of Israel! The land cannot bear everything he has to say,

so my people may inherit the remnant of Edom and all of the nations that bear my name," declares the LORD who is bringing this about.
