Out of Egypt I Called My Son
11 When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called My son.[fn]
2 But the more I called [Israel], the farther they departed from Me.[fn] They sacrificed to the Baals and burned incense to carved images.
3 It was I who taught Ephraim[fn] to walk, taking them by the arms, but they never realized that it was I who healed them.
4 I led them with cords of kindness, with ropes of love; I lifted the yoke from their necks and bent down to feed them.
5 Will they not return to the land of Egypt and be ruled by Assyria because they refused to repent?
6 A sword will flash through their cities; it will destroy the bars of their gates and consume [them] in their own plans.
7 My people are bent on turning from Me. Though they call to the Most High, He will by no means exalt them.
God’s Love for Israel
8 How could I give you up, O Ephraim? How could I surrender you, O Israel? How could I make you like Admah? How could I treat you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within Me My compassion is stirred!
9 I will not execute the full fury of My anger; I will not destroy Ephraim again. For I am God and not man—the Holy One among you—and I will not come in wrath.
10 They will walk after the LORD; He will roar like a lion. When He roars, His children will come trembling from the west.
11 They will come trembling like birds from Egypt and like doves from the land of Assyria. Then I will settle them in their homes, declares the LORD.
12 Ephraim surrounds Me with lies, the house of Israel with deceit; but Judah still walks with God [and is] faithful to the Holy One.[fn]
