11 “When Israel was a child,^(A) I loved^(B) him,
    and out of Egypt I called my son.^(C)

² But the more they were called,
    the more they went away from me.^[a](A)
They sacrificed to the Baals^(B)
    and they burned incense to images.^(C)

³ It was I who taught Ephraim to walk,
    taking them by the arms;^(A)
but they did not realize
    it was I who healed^(B) them.
