Hosea 2:16–22
It will be in that day,” says the LORD,
“that you will call me ‘my husband,’
and no longer call me ‘my master.’
For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth,
and they will no longer be mentioned by name.
In that day I will make a covenant for them with the animals of the field,
and with the birds of the sky,
and with the creeping things of the ground.
I will break the bow, the sword, and the battle out of the land,
and will make them lie down safely.
I will betroth you to me forever.
Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, in justice, in loving kindness, and in compassion.
I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness;
and you shall know the LORD.
It will happen in that day, that I will respond,” says the LORD.
“I will respond to the heavens,
and they will respond to the earth;
and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil;
and they will respond to Jezreel.
