Hosea 2:16-18
Lexham English Bible
16 And on that day—[a]
a declaration of Yahweh—
you will call me, “My husband;”[b]
you will no longer call me, “My Baal.”[c]
17 I will remove the names
of the Baals from her mouth,
and they will no longer be mentioned by their name.
18 I will make a covenant for them on that day,
with the animals[d] of the field,
with the birds[e] of the heaven, and
with the creeping things[f] of the ground;
the bow, the sword, and the war I will abolish from the land, and I will let them lie down in safety.
