6qrAccording to their pasture, so were they filled;

qThey were filled, and their heart was exalted;

Therefore qrhave they forgotten me.

7Therefore sI will be unto them as a lion:

As ta leopard by the way will I uobserve them:

8I will meet them as va bear that is bereaved of her whelps,

And will rend the caul of their heart,

And there will I devour them like a lion:

†The wild beast shall tear them.

9O Israel, wthou hast destroyed thyself; but xin me †is thine help.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

but when they had grazed, they became full,

they were filled, and their heart was lifted up;

therefore they forgot me.

So I am to them like a lion;

like a leopard I will lurk beside the way.

I will fall upon them like a bear robbed of her cubs;

I will tear open their breast,

and there I will devour them like a lion,

as a wild beast would rip them open.

He destroys you, O Israel,

for you are against me, against your helper.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

When I fed them, they were satisfied;

when they were satisfied, they became proud;

then they forgot me.

So I will be like a lion to them,

like a leopard I will lurk by the path.

Like a bear robbed of her cubs,

I will attack them and rip them open;

like a lion I will devour them—

a wild animal will tear them apart.

“You are destroyed, Israel,

because you are against me, against your helper.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

When they had pasture,

they became satisfied;

they were satisfied,

and their hearts became proud.

Therefore they forgot me.

So I will be like a lion to them;

I will lurk like a leopard on the path.

I will attack them

like a bear robbed of her cubs

and tear open the rib cage over their hearts.

I will devour them there like a lioness,

like a wild beast that would rip them open.

I will destroy you, Israel;

you have no help but me.

NLTNew Living Translation

But when you had eaten and were satisfied,

you became proud and forgot me.

So now I will attack you like a lion,

like a leopard that lurks along the road.

Like a bear whose cubs have been taken away,

I will tear out your heart.

I will devour you like a hungry lioness

and mangle you like a wild animal.

“You are about to be destroyed, O Israel—

yes, by me, your only helper.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

When I fed them, they were satisfied;

they were satisfied and their heart was lifted up;

therefore they forgot me.

And I will be like a lion to them;

I lie in wait beside the way, like a leopard.

I will attack them like a bear robbed of her offspring,

and I will tear open the covering of their heart;

there I will devour them like a lion,

like an animal of the field would mutilate them.

I will destroy you, O Israel;

who will help you?
