Textus Receptus Bibles
Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
11:1 | When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and I called My son out of Egypt. |
11:2 | As they called to them, so they went from their face. They sacrifice to the Baals, and burn incense to graven images. |
11:3 | I also taught Ephraim to go; He took them on His arms. But they did not know that I healed them. |
11:4 | I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love. And I was to them as those who lift off the yoke on their jaws; and I gently give food to him. |
11:5 | He shall not return to the land of Egypt, but he of Assyria shall be his king, because they refused to return. |
11:6 | And the sword shall grieve in his cities, and shall destroy his bars, and shall consume, because of their own counsels. |
11:7 | And My people are bent on backsliding from Me. And they call him to the Most High; no one at all would exalt Him . |
11:8 | How shall I give you up, Ephraim? Shall I deliver you, Israel? How shall I make you like Admah? Shall I set you as Zeboim? My heart has turned within Me; My compassions are kindled together. |
11:9 | I will not carry out the heat of My anger; I will not return to destroy Ephraim. For I am God, and not a man, the Holy One in your midst. And I will not enter into the city. |
11:10 | They shall walk after Jehovah; He shall roar as a lion. When He roars, then sons shall tremble from the west. |
11:11 | They trembled like a bird from Egypt, and like a dove from the land of Assyria. And I will make them live in their houses, says Jehovah. |
11:12 | Ephraim circles around Me with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit; but Judah still rules with God and is faithful with the saints. |
