17 我要从你口中除掉巴力的名字,
再也不让你提起。

19 我要聘你永远做我的妻,
以仁义、正直、慈爱、怜悯聘你。

17 I will remove the names of the Baals from her lips;(A)

    and the creatures that move along the ground.(C)
Bow and sword and battle
    I will abolish(D) from the land,
    so that all may lie down in safety.(E)
19 I will betroth(F) you to me forever;
    I will betroth you in[a] righteousness and justice,(G)
    in[b] love and compassion.(H)
