Hosea 2:13-18 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

13. "I will punish her for the days of the Baals When she used to offer sacrifices to them And adorn herself with her earrings and jewelry, And follow her lovers, so that she forgot Me," declares the Lord.

14. "Therefore, behold, I will allure her, Bring her into the wilderness And speak kindly to her.

15. "Then I will give her her vineyards from there, And the valley of Achor as a door of hope. And she will sing there as in the days of her youth, As in the day when she came up from the land of Egypt.

16. "It will come about in that day," declares the Lord, "That you will call Me Ishi And will no longer call Me Baali.

17. "For I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth, So that they will be mentioned by their names no more.

18. "In that day I will also make a covenant for them With the beasts of the field, The birds of the sky And the creeping things of the ground. And I will abolish the bow, the sword and war from the land, And will make them lie down in safety.
