6 Bible Verses about Israel As Sons Of God

“Is Ephraim My dear son?
Is he a delightful child?
Indeed, as often as I have spoken against him,
I certainly still remember him;
Therefore My heart yearns for him;
I will surely have mercy on him,” declares the Lord.

“You are the sons of the Lord your God; you shall not cut yourselves nor shave your forehead for the sake of the dead.

I said, “You are gods,
And all of you are sons of the Most High.

If I had said, “I will speak thus,”
Behold, I would have betrayed the generation of Your children.

“Then I said,
‘How I would set you among My sons
And give you a pleasant land,
The most beautiful inheritance of the nations!’
And I said, ‘You shall call Me, My Father,
And not turn away from following Me.’

“They have acted corruptly toward Him,
They are not His children, because of their defect;
But are a perverse and crooked generation.
