Mikha 5:8

5:8 Those survivors from Jacob will live among the nations,

in the midst of many peoples.

They will be like a lion among the animals of the forest,

like a young lion among the flocks of sheep,

which attacks when it passes through;

it rips its prey ¹  and there is no one to stop it. ² 

Mikha 7:10

7:10 When my enemies see this, they will be covered with shame.

They say ³  to me, “Where is the Lord your God?”

I will gloat over them. ⁴ 

Then they will be trampled down ⁵ 

like mud in the streets.
