שיר עליון

אכתוב-לוֹ--רִבְּוּעַ , תּוֹרָתִי: כְּמוֹ-זָרַע, נֶחְשָׁבוּ

וְאָנֹכִי תִרְגַּלְתִּי לְאֶפְרַיִם, לְקָחָם עַל-זְרוֹעֹתָיו; וְלֹא יָדְעוּ, כִּי רְפָאתִים

וְעַמִּי תְלוּאִים, לִמְשׁוּבָתִי; וְאֶל-עַלִי, יִקְרָאֻהוּ--יַחַד, לֹא יְרוֹמֵם

אֵיךְ אֶתֶּנְךָ אֶפְרַיִם, וְאֲמַגֶּנְךָ יִשְׂרָאֵל
אֵיךְ אֶתֶּנְךָ כְאַדְמָה, וְאֲשִׂימְךָ כִּצְבֹאיִם

נֶהְפַּךְ עָלַי לִבִּי, יַחַד נִכְמְרוּ נִחוּמָי

I will write him a square, My Torah, and they are counted as seed.
It was Me who reared Ephraim, who took them into his arms, and they did not know that I healed them.
My people waver about their relationship to Me: and they shout at Him, to the Highest; what is the response, would He not raise them up?
How can I give you up, Ephraim, and how can I hand you over, Israel?
How can I give you up like Admah, and how can I make you like Tzevoim?
My heart turned inside me, that is the response, My compassion has been kindled.

Hoshea 8:12, 11:3, 11:7, 11:8.
