Berean Standard Bible

When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called My son.*

Context

1When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called My son.* 2But the more I called Israel, the farther they departed from Me.* They sacrificed to the Baals and burned incense to carved images. 3It was I who taught Ephraim * to walk, taking them in My arms, but they never realized that it was I who healed them.
