Hosea 11:3

God Will Have Compassion

² As they called them, so they went from them; they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images. ³ Yet it is I who taught Ephraim to walk,
I took them in My arms;
But they did not know that I healed them.
⁴ I drew them with human cords, with bands of love, and I was to them as those that raise the yoke from upon their cheeks, and I fed them.

It is I
