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)

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.
