Hosea 13:5 Context
3Therefore they shalbe as the morning cloud, and as the early dew it passeth away, as the chaffe that is driuen with a whirlewinde out of the floore, and as the smoke out of the chimney. 4Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no God, but me: for there is no sauiour beside me. 5¶ I did know thee in the wildernesse, in the land of great drought. 6According to their pasture, so were they filled: they were filled, and their heart was exalted: therefore haue they forgotten me. 7Therefore I will bee vnto them as a Lion, as a Leopard by the way will I obserue them.
