Hosea 11:3-5

Lexham English Bible

³ And I myself taught Ephraim to walk;
    I took them^[a] in my^[b] arms,
but they did not know that I healed them.
⁴ I drew them with human ties,^[c]
    with the bands of love.
I was to them like one who lifted up^[d] a yoke on their jaws,^[e]
    though I bent down to them^[f] and let them^[g] eat.
⁵ He will return^[h] to the land of Egypt,
    and Assyria will be his king,^[i]
    because they refused to return.
