Hosea 11 — KJVCP

See Hebrew/Greek in BSB →

11Verse 1When Israel was a child, then I loved him,
And called my son out of Egypt.
Verse 2As they called them, so they went from them:
They sacrificed unto Baalim, and burnt incense to graven images.
Verse 3I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms;
But they knew not that I healed them.
Verse 4I 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.
Verse 5He shall not return into the land of Egypt,
But the Assyrian shall be his king,
Because they refused to return.
Verse 6And the sword shall abide on his cities,
And shall consume his branches, and devour them,
Because of their own counsels.
Verse 7And my people are bent to backsliding from me:
Though they called them to the most High,
None at all would exalt him.
Verse 8How 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.
Verse 9I 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.
Verse 10They shall walk after the Lord: he shall roar like a lion:
When he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west.
Verse 11They 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.
Verse 12Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit:
But Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the saints.
