Hosea 2:14-17

Yahweh’s Faithful Betrothal
14 “Therefore, behold, I will allure her
(A)And bring her into the wilderness
And speak to her heart.
15 Then I will give her her (B)vineyards from there
And (C)the valley of Achor as a door of hope.
And she will [a](D)sing there as in the days of her youth,
As in the (E)day when she came up from the land of Egypt.
16 And it will be in that day,” declares Yahweh,
“That you will call Me [b](F)Ishi
And will no longer call Me [c]Baali.
17 So (G)I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth
So that they will be remembered by their names no more.

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.
