XI. aWhen Israel was a child, then bI loved him,
And ccalled dmy son out of Egypt.
2 As ethey called them, so they went from them:
fThey sacrificed unto Baalim, and fburnt incense to graven images.
3 gI taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms;
But they knew not that hI healed them.
4 iI drew them with cords kof a man, with bands of love:
And lI was to them kas they that * take off the yoke on their jaws,
And mI laid meat unto them.
5 nHe shall not return into the land of Egypt,
But othe Assyrian shall be his king,
pBecause they refused to return.
6 * And the sword shall qabide on his cities,
And shall consume his rbranches, and devour them,
sBecause of their own counsels.
7 And my people are bent tto backsliding from me:
eThough they called them to uthe most High,
* None at all would vexalt him.
8 wHow shall I give thee up, Ephraim?
How shall I deliver thee, Israel?
How shall I make thee as xyAdmah?
How shall I set thee as yZeboim?
Mine heart is turned zwithin me,
aMy repentings bare kindled together.
9 I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger,
I will not return to destroy Ephraim:
cFor I am God, and not man;
dThe Holy One din the midst of thee:
And I will not enter into the city.
10 eThey shall walk after the Lord: fhe shall roar glike a lion:
When he shall roar, then the children shall tremble hfrom the west.
11 They shall tremble as a bird iout of Egypt,
And jas a dove ikout of the land of Assyria:
And lI will place them in their houses, saith the Lord.
12 Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit:
mBut Judah yet nruleth with God, and is faithful * with othe saints.
