Hosea 2:14-19

New International Version

¹⁴ “Therefore I am now going to allure her;
    I will lead her into the wilderness^(A)
    and speak tenderly to her.
¹⁵ There I will give her back her vineyards,
    and will make the Valley of Achor^[a](B) a door of hope.
There she will respond^[b](C) as in the days of her youth,^(D)
    as in the day she came up out of Egypt.^(E)

¹⁶ “In that day,” declares the Lord,
    “you will call me ‘my husband’;^(F)
    you will no longer call me ‘my master.^[c]’
¹⁷ I will remove the names of the Baals from her lips;^(G)
    no longer will their names be invoked.^(H)
18 In that day I will make a covenant for them
    with the beasts of the field, the birds in the sky
    and the creatures that move along the ground.^(I)
Bow and sword and battle
    I will abolish^(J) from the land,
    so that all may lie down in safety.^(K)
19 I will betroth^(L) you to me forever;
    I will betroth you in^[d] righteousness and justice,^(M)
    in^[e] love and compassion.^(N)
