Hosea 12:12-14
New Living Translation
12 Jacob fled to the land of Aram,
and there he[a] earned a wife by tending sheep.
13 Then by a prophet
the Lord brought Jacob’s descendants[b] out of Egypt;
and by that prophet
they were protected.
14 But the people of Israel
have bitterly provoked the Lord,
so their Lord will now sentence them to death
in payment for their sins.
