Hosea 12:12-14
Authorized (King James) Version
12 And Jacob fled into the country of Syria,
and Israel served for a wife,
and for a wife he kept sheep.
13 And by a prophet the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt,
and by a prophet was he preserved.
14 Ephraim provoked him to anger most bitterly:
therefore shall he leave his blood upon him,
and his reproach shall his Lord return unto him.
