| Vers | English: King James Version | Greek OT: LXX [A] Accented |
| 1 | When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. | διότι νήπιος ισραηλ καὶ ἐγὼ ἠγάπησα αὐτὸν καὶ ἐξ αἰγύπτου μετεκάλεσα τὰ τέκνα αὐτοῦ |
| 2 | As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images. | καθὼς μετεκάλεσα αὐτούς οὕτως ἀπῴχοντο ἐκ προσώπου μου αὐτοὶ τοῖς βααλιμ ἔθυον καὶ τοῖς γλυπτοῖς ἐθυμίων |
| 3 | I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them. | καὶ ἐγὼ συνεπόδισα τὸν εφραιμ ἀνέλαβον αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὸν βραχίονά μου καὶ οὐκ ἔγνωσαν ὅτι ἴαμαι αὐτούς |
| 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. | ἐν διαφθορᾷ ἀνθρώπων ἐξέτεινα αὐτοὺς ἐν δεσμοῖς ἀγαπήσεώς μου καὶ ἔσομαι αὐτοῖς ὡς ῥαπίζων ἄνθρωπος ἐπὶ τὰς σιαγόνας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπιβλέψομαι πρὸς αὐτόν δυνήσομαι αὐτῷ |
| 5 | He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return. | κατῴκησεν εφραιμ ἐν αἰγύπτῳ καὶ ασσουρ αὐτὸς βασιλεὺς αὐτοῦ ὅτι οὐκ ἠθέλησεν ἐπιστρέψαι |
| 6 | And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels. | καὶ ἠσθένησεν ῥομφαία ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν αὐτοῦ καὶ κατέπαυσεν ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτοῦ καὶ φάγονται ἐκ τῶν διαβουλίων αὐτῶν |
| 7 | And my people are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt him. | καὶ ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ ἐπικρεμάμενος ἐκ τῆς κατοικίας αὐτοῦ καὶ ὁ θεὸς ἐπὶ τὰ τίμια αὐτοῦ θυμωθήσεται καὶ οὐ μὴ ὑψώσῃ αὐτόν |
| 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. | τί σε διαθῶ εφραιμ ὑπερασπιῶ σου ισραηλ τί σε διαθῶ ὡς αδαμα θήσομαί σε καὶ ὡς σεβωιμ μετεστράφη ἡ καρδία μου ἐν τῷ αὐτῷ συνεταράχθη ἡ μεταμέλειά μου |
| 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. | οὐ μὴ ποιήσω κατὰ τὴν ὀργὴν τοῦ θυμοῦ μου οὐ μὴ ἐγκαταλίπω τοῦ ἐξαλειφθῆναι τὸν εφραιμ διότι θεὸς ἐγώ εἰμι καὶ οὐκ ἄνθρωπος ἐν σοὶ ἅγιος καὶ οὐκ εἰσελεύσομαι εἰς πόλιν |
| 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. | ὀπίσω κυρίου πορεύσομαι ὡς λέων ἐρεύξεται ὅτι αὐτὸς ὠρύσεται καὶ ἐκστήσονται τέκνα ὑδάτων |
| 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. | καὶ ἐκστήσονται ὡς ὄρνεον ἐξ αἰγύπτου καὶ ὡς περιστερὰ ἐκ γῆς ἀσσυρίων καὶ ἀποκαταστήσω αὐτοὺς εἰς τοὺς οἴκους αὐτῶν λέγει κύριος |
| 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. |
