Hosea 11:1-3

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

11 When Israel was a child, then I loved him and called My son out of Egypt.^(A)

² The more [the prophets] called to them, the more they went from them; they kept sacrificing to the Baals and burning incense to the graven images.

³ Yet I taught Ephraim to walk, taking them by their arms or taking them up in My arms, but they did not know that I healed them.
