Hosea 11:1-3
Lexham English Bible
God Will Have Compassion
11 When Israel was a child, I loved him,
and out of Egypt I called my son.
2 When I called[a] them, they went from my face.[b]
They sacrificed to the Baals, and they sacrificed to idols.
3 And I myself taught Ephraim to walk;
I took them[c] in my[d] arms,
but they did not know that I healed them.
