Hosea 2:14-17
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.

World English Bible
14 “Therefore behold, I will allure her,
and bring her into the wilderness,
and speak tenderly to her.
15 I will give her vineyards from there,
and the valley of Achor for a door of hope;
and she will respond there,
as in the days of her youth,
and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.
16 It will be in that day,” says Yahweh,
“that you will call me ‘my husband,’
and no longer call me ‘my master.’
17 For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth,
and they will no longer be mentioned by name.
