Hosea 11:3

God Will Have Compassion

² They have called to them rightly, They have gone from before them, To lords they do sacrifice, And to graven images they make perfume. ³ And I have caused Ephraim to go on foot, Taking them by their arms, And they have not known that I strengthened them. ⁴ With cords of man I do draw them, With thick cords of love, And I am to them as a raiser up of a yoke on their jaws, And I incline unto him -- I feed him.
