Hosea 2:14-17
American Standard Version
14 Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak [a]comfortably unto her. 15 And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of [b]Achor for a door of hope; and she shall [c]make answer there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt. 16 And it shall be at that day, saith Jehovah, that thou shalt call me [d]Ishi, and shalt call me no more [e]Baali. 17 For I will take away the names of the Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall no more be [f]mentioned by their name.

Lexham English Bible
14 Therefore, Look! I am going to allure her
and bring her into the desert,
and I will speak tenderly to her.[a]
15 From there I will give her
her vineyards,
and the Valley of Achor as a doorway of hope.
And there she will respond,
as in the days of her youth,
just as in the day of her coming out of
the land of Egypt.
16 And on that day—[b]
a declaration of Yahweh—
you will call me, “My husband;”[c]
you will no longer call me, “My Baal.”[d]
17 I will remove the names
of the Baals from her mouth,
and they will no longer be mentioned by their name.
