18 On that day I will also make a covenant for them
With the (A)animals of the field,

And I will [a](B)eliminate the bow, the sword, and war from the land,
And will let them (C)lie down in safety.

Yes, I will betroth you to Me in (E)righteousness and in justice,

18 On that day I will make a covenant
with all the wild animals and the birds of the sky
and the animals that scurry along the ground
so they will not harm you.
I will remove all weapons of war from the land,
all swords and bows,
so you can live unafraid
in peace and safety.
19 I will make you my wife forever,
showing you righteousness and justice,
unfailing love and compassion.
20 I will be faithful to you and make you mine,
and you will finally know me as the Lord.
