| 1 When Israel was a youth I loved him, And out of Egypt I called My son. | 1 When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. | 1 When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. | 1 As the morning passeth, so hath the king of Israel Israel was a child, and I loved him: and I called my son out of Egypt. | 1 Because Israel is a youth, and I love him, Out of Egypt I have called for My Son. | 2 The more they called them, The more they went from them; They kept sacrificing to the Baals And burning incense to idols. | 2 As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images. | 2 The more the prophets called them, the more they went from them: they sacrificed unto the Baalim, and burned incense to graven images. | 2 As they called them, they went away from before their face: they offered victims to Baalim, and sacrificed to idols. | 2 They have called to them rightly, They have gone from before them, To lords they do sacrifice, And to graven images they make perfume. | 3 Yet it is I who taught Ephraim to walk, I took them in My arms; But they did not know that I healed them. | 3 I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them. | 3 Yet I taught Ephraim to walk; I took them on my arms; but they knew not that I healed them. | 3 And I was like a foster father to Ephraim, I carried them in my arms: and they knew not that I healed them. | 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 led them with cords of a man, with bonds of love, And I became to them as one who lifts the yoke from their jaws; And I bent down and fed them. | 4 I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love: and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I laid meat unto them. | 4 I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love; and I was to them as they that lift up the yoke on their jaws; and I laid food before them. | 4 I will draw them with the cords of Adam, with the bands of love : and I will be to them as one that taketh off the yoke on their jaws: and I put his meat to him that he might eat. | 4 With cords of man I do draw them, With thick cords of love, And I am to them as a raiser up of a yoke on their jaws, And I incline unto him -- I feed him. | 5 They will not return to the land of Egypt; But Assyria-- he will be their king Because they refused to return to Me. | 5 He shall not return into the land of Egypt, and the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return. | 5 They shall not return into the land of Egypt; but the Assyrian shall be their king, because they refused to return to me . | 5 He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king: because they would not be converted. | 5 He turneth not back unto the land of Egypt, And Asshur -- he is his king, For they have refused to return. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 6 The sword will whirl against their cities, And will demolish their gate bars And consume them because of their counsels. | 6 And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels. | 6 And the sword shall fall upon their cities, and shall consume their bars, and devour them , because of their own counsels. | 6 The sword hath begun in his cities, and it shall consume his chosen men, and sha.ll devour their heads. | 6 Grievous hath been the sword in his cities, And it hath ended his bars, and consumed -- from their own counsels. | 7 So My people are bent on turning from Me. Though they call them to the One on high, None at all exalts Him. | 7 And my people are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt him. | 7 And my people are bent on backsliding from me: though they call them to him that is on high, none at all will exalt him . | 7 And my people shall long for my return: but a yoke shall be put upon them together, which shall not be taken off. | 7 And My people are hanging in suspense, about My returning, And unto the Most High they do call, Together they exalt not. | 8 How can I give you up, O Ephraim? How can I surrender you, O Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I treat you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned over within Me, All My compassions are kindled. | 8 How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how shall I deliver thee, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? how shall I set thee as Zeboim? mine heart is turned within me, my repentings are kindled together. | 8 How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how'shall I cast thee off, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? how'shall I set thee as Zeboiim? my heart is turned within me, my compassions are kindled together. | 8 How shall I deal with thee, O Ephraim, shall I protect thee, O Israel? how shall I make thee as Adama, shall I set thee as Seboim? my heart is turned within me, my repentance is stirred up. | 8 How do I give thee up, O Ephraim? Do I deliver thee up, O Israel? How do I make thee as Admah? Do I set thee as Zeboim? Turned in Me is My heart, kindled together have been My repentings. | 9 I will not execute My fierce anger; I will not destroy Ephraim again. For I am God and not man, the Holy One in your midst, And I will not come in wrath. | 9 I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city. | 9 I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee; and I will not come in wrath. | 9 I will not execute the fierceness of my wrath: I will not return to destroy Ephraim: because I am God, and not man: the holy one in the midst of thee, and I will not enter into the city. | 9 I do not the fierceness of My anger, I turn not back to destroy Ephraim, For God I am, and not a man. In thy midst the Holy One, and I enter not in enmity, | 10 They will walk after the LORD, He will roar like a lion; Indeed He will roar And His sons will come trembling from the west. | 10 They shall walk after the LORD: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west. | 10 They shall walk after Jehovah, who will roar like a lion; for he will roar, and the children shall come trembling from the west. | 10 They shall walk after the Lord, he shall roar as a lion: because he shall roar, and the children of the sea shall fear. | 10 After Jehovah they go -- as a lion He roareth, When He doth roar, then tremble do the sons from the west. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 11 They will come trembling like birds from Egypt And like doves from the land of Assyria; And I will settle them in their houses, declares the LORD. | 11 They shall tremble as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria: and I will place them in their houses, saith the LORD. | 11 They shall come trembling as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria; and I will make them to dwell in their houses, saith Jehovah. | 11 And they shall fly away like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove out of the land of the Assyrians: and I will place them in their own houses, saith the Lord. | 11 They tremble as a sparrow out of Egypt, And as a dove out of the land of Asshur, And I have caused them to dwell in their own houses, An affirmation of Jehovah. | 12 Ephraim surrounds Me with lies And the house of Israel with deceit; Judah is also unruly against God, Even against the Holy One who is faithful. | 12 Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the saints. | 12 Ephraim compasseth me about with falsehood, and the house of Israel with deceit; but Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the Holy One. | 12 Ephraim hath compassed me about with denials, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Juda went down as a witness with God, and is faithful with the saints. | 12 Compassed Me with feigning hath Ephraim, And with deceit the house of Israel. And Judah again is ruling with God, And with the Holy Ones is faithful! |
