RNKJV - Hosea - 11

11:1  When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.

11:2  As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images.

11:3  I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them.

11:4  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.

11:5  He shall not return into the land of Egypt, and the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return.

11:6  And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels.

11:7  And my people are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt him.

11:8  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.

11:9  I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am El, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city.

11:10  They shall walk after יהוה: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west.

11:11  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 יהוה.

11:12  Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with El, and is faithful with the saints.
