Well-Fed Israel Will Be Fed to Wild Animals But I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt. Therefore, you must not acknowledge any God but me; except me there is no Savior.
I cared for you in the wilderness, in the dry desert where no water was.
When they were fed, they became satisfied; when they were satisfied, they became proud; as a result, they forgot me!
So I will pounce on them like a lion; like a leopard I will lurk by the path.
I will attack them like a bear robbed of her cubs– I will rip open their chests. I will devour them there like a lion– like a wild animal would tear them apart.

Where then is your king, that he may save you in all your cities? Where are your rulers for whom you asked, saying,“Give me a king and princes”?
