Context of Hosea 2:13
11And I will cause all her mirth to cease: her feasts, her new moons, and her sabbaths! and all her solemnities. 12And I will make desolate her vine and her fig-tree, whereof she hath said, These are my rewards which my lovers have given me; and I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them. And I will visit upon her the days of the Baals, wherein she burned incense to them, and decked herself with her rings and jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, saith Jehovah. 14Therefore behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak to her heart. 15And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.
