Hosea 11 📜 📕 ↷
Out of Egypt I Called My Son
1 AS the morning passed, hath the king of Israel passed away. Because Israel was a child, and I loved him: & out of AEgypt I called my son.📜💬📚
2 They called them, so they departed from their face: they immolated to Baalim, and sacrificed to idols.📜💬📚
3 And I as it were the nurse of Ephraim, carried them in mine arms: and they knew not that I cured them.📜💬📚
4 In the cords of Adam I will draw them, in the bands of charity: and I will be to them as lifting up the yoke upon their cheeks: and I declined to him that he might eat.📜💬📚
5 He shall not return into the Land of AEgypt, and Assur he his king: because they would not convert.📜💬📚
6 The sword hath begun in his cities, and it shall consume his elect, and shall eat their heads.📜💬📚
7 And my people shall hang upon my return: but a yoke shall be put upon them together, which shall not be taken away.📜💬📚
God's Love for Israel
8 How shall I give thee Ephraim, protect thee Israel? How shall I give thee as Adama, lay thee as Seboim? My heart is turned within, my repentance is disturbed together.📜💬📚
9 I will not do the fury of my wrath: I will not return to destroy Ephraim: because I am God, and not man: in the midst of thee the Holy one, and I will not enter into the city.📜💬📚
10 They shall walk after our Lord, as a lion will he roar: because he will roar, and the children of the sea shall fear.📜💬📚
11 And they shall fly away as a bird out of AEgypt, and as a dove out of the Land of the Assyrians: and I will place them in their houses, saith our Lord.📜💬📚
12 Ephraim hath compassed me in denying, and the house of Israel in deceit: but Judas a witness is descended with God, and with the saints, faithful.📜💬📚
