Theme

Hosea 11 (11 verses in the MT) opens: When Israel a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. The middle of the chapter continues: And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour , because of their own counsels. It closes: 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, says YHWH.

Translation & textual notes

The Hebrew base text here follows the Masoretic Text in the Leningrad tradition as represented by the Westminster Leningrad Codex / MorphHB diplomatic stream imported from OSHB; distinctively copyrighted apparatus from BHS or BHQ is not reproduced. Hosea 11 comprises 11 verses in MT order. Movement I (vv. 1-4) — When Israel a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. When Israel a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed to Baalim, and burned incense to graven images. I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them. I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love: and I was to them as they that take. Movement II (vv. 5-8) — He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be hi. He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return. And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour , because of their own counsels. And my people are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt . How shall I. Movement III (vv. 9-11) — I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to de. I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of you: and I will not enter into the city. They shall walk after YHWH: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west. They shall tremble as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove. Where English printed Bibles divide verses differently, this annotation follows MT versification throughout.
