Hosea 11:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
11 1 The benefits of the Lord toward Israel. 5 Their ingratitude against him.
1 When Israel [a]was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.
2 They called them, but they [b]went thus from them: they sacrificed unto Baal, and burnt incense to images.
3 I led Ephraim also, as one should bear them in his arms: but they knew not that I healed them.

the more they went away from me.[a](D)

and they burned incense to images.(F)
3 It was I who taught Ephraim to walk,
taking them by the arms;(G)
but they did not realize
it was I who healed(H) them.
