Hosea 2:11-15

11I will stop all her celebrations: her yearly festivals, her New Moons, her Sabbath days—all her appointed festivals.

12I will ruin her vines and her fig trees, which she said were her pay from her lovers; I will make them a thicket, and wild animals will devour them.

13I will punish her for the days she burned incense to the Baals; she decked herself with rings and jewelry, and went after her lovers, but me she forgot,” declares the Lord.

14“Therefore I am now going to allure her; I will lead her into the wilderness and speak tenderly to her.

15There I will give her back her vineyards, and will make the Valley of Achor a door of hope. There she will respond as in the days of her youth, as in the day she came up out of Egypt.
