# as a bear ... as a lion ... as a wild beast
These are wild animals that attack and kill other animals. Yahweh continues to say that he will destroy his people for their sins. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-simile]])
# as a bear that is robbed of her cubs
The words "would attack" are left out because they are understood. This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "like a bear would attack an animal that takes her cubs" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-ellipsis]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
# as a lion
The words "would devour them" are left out because they are understood. Alternate translation: "as a lion would devour them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-ellipsis]])
