Chapter 11

1


 

  When Israel [was] a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.  

 

 


2


 

  [As] they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images.  

 

 


3


 

  I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them.  

 

 


4


 

  I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love: and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I laid meat unto them.  

 

 


5


 

  He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return.  

 

 


6


 

  And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour [them], because of their own counsels.  

 

 


7


 

  And my people are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt [him].  

 

 


8


 

  How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? [how] shall I deliver thee, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? [how] shall I set thee as Zeboim? mine heart is turned within me, my repentings are kindled together.  

 

 


9


 

  I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I [am] God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city.  

 

 


10


 

  They shall walk after the LORD: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west.  

 

 


11


 

  They shall tremble as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria: and I will place them in their houses, saith the LORD.  

 

 


12


 

  Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the saints.
