1 “Because Israel [is] a youth, and I love him, || Out of Egypt I have called for My Son. 2 They have called to them correctly, || They have gone from before them, || They sacrifice to lords, || And make incense to carved images. 3 And I have caused Ephraim to go on foot, || Taking them by their arms, || And they have not known that I strengthened them. 4 I draw them with cords of man, || With thick cords of love, || And I am to them as a raiser up of a yoke on their jaws, || And I incline to him—I feed [him].
