Hosea 11:2-4

Authorized (King James) Version

² As they called them, so they went from them:
they sacrificed unto Baalim,
and burned incense to graven images.
³ I taught Ephraim also to go,
taking them by their arms;
but they knew not that I healed them.
⁴ I drew them with cords of a man,
with bands of love:
and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws,
and I laid meat unto them.
