Hosea 2:16-20

16It will come about in that day,” declares the Lord, “That you will call Me 12Ishi And will no longer call Me 3Baali.17For 4I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth, So that they will be 5mentioned by their names no more.18In that day I will also make a covenant for them With the 6beasts of the field, The birds of the sky And the creeping things of the ground. And I will 78abolish the bow, the sword and war from the land, And will make them 9lie down in safety.19I will 10betroth you to Me forever; Yes, I will betroth you to Me in 11righteousness and in justice, In lovingkindness and in compassion,20And I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness. Then you will 12know the Lord.
