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