and with pleas for mercy I will lead them back,

I will make them walk by brooks of water,

in a straight path in which they shall not stumble,

for I am a father to Israel,

and Ephraim is my firstborn.

on a level path where they will not stumble,

because I am Israel’s father,

and Ephraim is my firstborn son.

for I have become to Israel a father,

and Ephraim, he is my firstborn.”
