Hosea 2:18-20

18In that day I will also make a covenant for them With the 1beasts of the field, The birds of the sky And the creeping things of the ground. And I will 2 3abolish the bow, the sword and war from the land, And will make them 4lie down in safety.19I will 5betroth you to Me forever; Yes, I will betroth you to Me in 6righteousness and in justice, In lovingkindness and in compassion,20And I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness. Then you will 7know the Lord.
