Hosea 11:3-5
New King James Version
3 “I(A) taught Ephraim to walk,
Taking them by [a]their arms;
But they did not know that (B)I healed them.
4 I drew them with [b]gentle cords,
With bands of love,
And (C)I was to them as those who take the yoke from their [c]neck.
(D)I stooped and fed them.
5 “He shall not return to the land of Egypt;
But the Assyrian shall be his king,
Because they refused to repent.
