Hosea 11

¹ When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called My son.

² But the more I called Israel, the farther they departed from Me. They sacrificed to the Baals and burned incense to carved images.

³ It was I who taught Ephraim to walk, taking them by the arms, but they never realized that it was I who healed them.
