Hosea 11:1
Hebrew Bible
1 “When Israel was a young man, I loved him like a son, and I summoned my son out of Egypt. 2 But the more I summoned them, the farther they departed from me. They sacrificed to the Baal idols and burned incense to images. 3 Yet it was I who led Ephraim; I took them by the arm, but they did not acknowledge that I had healed them.

LXX Hosea 11:1
Septuagint
1 At dawn they were thrown away; the king of Israel was thrown away.” The Wayward Child “Because Israel was an infant, and I loved him, and out of Egypt I called back his children. 2 Just as I called them back, so they sued to depart from my face. They were sacrificing to the Baals, and used to burn incense to the graven images. 3 And I tied together the feet of Ephraim, and took him upon my arm; they did not know that I had healed them.
