Hosea 2:16-20
New International Version
16 “In that day,” declares the Lord,
“you will call me ‘my husband’;(A)
you will no longer call me ‘my master.[a]’
17 I will remove the names of the Baals from her lips;(B)
no longer will their names be invoked.(C)
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.(D)
Bow and sword and battle
I will abolish(E) from the land,
so that all may lie down in safety.(F)
19 I will betroth(G) you to me forever;
I will betroth you in[b] righteousness and justice,(H)
in[c] love and compassion.(I)
20 I will betroth you in[d] faithfulness,
and you will acknowledge(J) the Lord.(K)
