Hosea 11:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ And I was like a foster father to Ephraim, I carried them in my arms: and they knew not that I healed them.

⁴ I will draw them with the cords of Adam, with the bands of love: and I will be to them as one that taketh off the yoke on their jaws: and I put his meat to him that he might eat.

⁵ He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king: because they would not be converted.
