3 I myself taught Israel11:3 Hebrew Ephraim, referring to the northern kingdom of Israel; also in 11:8, 9, 12. how to walk,
leading him along by the hand.
But he doesn’t know or even care
that it was I who took care of him.
4 I led Israel along
with my ropes of kindness and love.
I lifted the yoke from his neck,
and I myself stooped to feed him.
