4 Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?
5 Can a bird fall in a snare on the earth, where no gin is [set] for him? shall a snare spring up from the ground, and have taken nothing at all?
6 Shall the trumpet be blown in a city, and the people not be afraid? shall evil befall a city, and Yahweh has not done it?
7 Surely the Lord Yahweh will do nothing, except he reveal his secret to his servants the prophets.
8 The lion has roared; who will not fear? The Lord Yahweh has spoken; who can but prophesy?
9 Publish you in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria, and see what great tumults are therein, and what oppressions in the midst of it.
10 For they don`t know to do right, says Yahweh, who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.
