Hosea 11:2-4

2They called out to them but they departed from their presence. They kept sacrificing to the Baalim and burning incense up to idols.

3Yet it was I who taught Ephraim to walk. I took them on My arms. But they never acknowledged that I had healed them.

4With human cords I was drawing them, with bonds of love, and I became to them as One lifting a yoke from their jaws. I bent down to them and fed them.
