ylt @Hosea:11:1 @Because Israel [is ] a youth , and I love him , Out of Egypt I have called for My Son . ylt @Hosea:11:2 @They have called to them rightly , They have gone from before them , To lords they do sacrifice , And to graven images they make perfume . ylt @Hosea:11:3 @And I have caused Ephraim to go on foot , Taking them by their arms , And they have not known that I strengthened them . ylt @Hosea:11:4 @With cords of man I do draw them , With thick cords of love , And I am to them as a raiser up of a yoke on their jaws , And I incline unto him -- I feed [him ]. ylt @Hosea:11:5 @He turneth not back unto the land of Egypt , And Asshur -- he [is ] his king , For they have refused to return . ylt @Hosea:11:6 @Grievous hath been the sword in his cities , And it hath ended his bars , and consumed -- from their own counsels . ylt @Hosea:11:7 @And My people are hanging in suspense , about My returning , And unto the Most High they do call , Together they exalt not . ylt @Hosea:11:8 @How do I give thee up , O Ephraim ? Do I deliver thee up , O Israel ? How do I make thee as Admah ? Do I set thee as Zeboim ? Turned in Me is My heart , kindled together have been My repentings . ylt @Hosea:11:9 @I do not the fierceness of My anger , I turn not back to destroy Ephraim , For God I [am ], and not a man . In thy midst the Holy One , and I enter not in enmity , ylt @Hosea:11:10 @After Jehovah they go -- as a lion He roareth , When He doth roar , then tremble do the sons from the west . ylt @Hosea:11:11 @They tremble as a sparrow out of Egypt , And as a dove out of the land of Asshur , And I have caused them to dwell in their own houses , An affirmation of Jehovah .
