Ezekiel 4:14
14Then I said, a“Ah, Lord God! Behold, I have never defiled myself. ▼▼Hebrew my soul (or throat) has never been made unclean
cFrom my youth up till now I have never eaten dwhat died of itself or was torn by beasts, nor has etainted meat come into my mouth.” Amos 3:12
12Thus says the Lord: f“As the shepherd rescues from the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear, gso shall the people of Israel hwho dwell in Samaria be rescued, with the corner of a couch and part ▼▼The meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain
of a bed. Micah 5:8
8And jthe remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations,in the midst of many peoples,
like a lion among the beasts of the forest,
like a young lion among the flocks of sheep,
kwhich, when it goes through, treads down
and tears in pieces, and there is none to deliver.
Nahum 2:12
12 lThe lion tore enough for his cubsand mstrangled prey for his lionesses;
he filled his caves with prey
and his dens with torn flesh.
