'Devoured' in the Bible
Even when it was whole it could not be made into a useful object. How much less can it ever be made into anything useful when the fire has devoured it and it is charred!
She brought up one of her cubs,and he became a young lion.After he learned to tear prey,he devoured people.
He prowled among the lions,and he became a young lion.After he learned to tear prey,he devoured people.
Fire has gone out from its main branchand has devoured its fruit,so that it no longer has a strong branch,a scepter for ruling.This is a lament and should be used as a lament.”
“Tell them this: This is what the Lord God says: As surely as I live, those who are in the ruins will fall by the sword, those in the open field I have given to wild animals to be devoured, and those in the strongholds and caves will die by plague.
