Hosea 11:4-6
Easy-to-Read Version

4 I led them with ropes,[a]
    but they were ropes of love.
I was like a person who set them free.[b]
    I bent down and fed them.

5 “The Israelites will not go back to Egypt. The king of Assyria will become their king, because they refused to turn back to God. 6 The sword will swing against their cities and kill their strong men. It will destroy their leaders.
