Hosea 11:4-6

Darby Translation

⁴ I drew them with bands of a man, with cords of love; and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I gently caused them to eat.

⁵ He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king; for they refused to return [to me];

⁶ and the sword shall turn about in his cities, and shall consume his bars, and devour [them], because of their own counsels.
