Hosea 11:2-7

2As they calledH7121 them, so they wentH1980 from them: they sacrificedH2076 unto the BaalsH1168, and burned incenseH6999 to graven images.

3And I it was that taught EphraimH669 to walk, — He tookH3947 them upon his armsH2220, — but they knewH3045 not that I healedH7495 them.

4I drewH4900 them with bands of a manH120, with cordsH5688 of loveH160; and I wasH1961 to them as they that takeH7311 off the yokeH5923 on their jawsH3895, and I gently caused them to eatH398.

5He shall not returnH7725 into the landH776 of EgyptH4714, but the Assyrian shall be his kingH4428; for they refusedH3985 to returnH7725 [to me];

6and the swordH2719 shall turn about in his citiesH5892, and shall consumeH398 his bars, and devourH398 [them], because of their own counselsH4156.

7Yea, my peopleH5971 are bent upon backsliding from me: though they callH7121 them to the Most HighH7311, none at all exalteth [him].
