Hoshea 2:16-20 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

16. [2:18] And it shall be in Yom Hahu, saith Hashem, that thou shalt call Me Ishi (my Husband); and shalt call Me no more Ba'ali.

17. [2:19] For I will take away the shemot (names) of Ba'alim out of her mouth, and they shall be remembered by their names no more.

18. [2:20] And in Yom Hahu will I make a brit (covenant) for them with the beasts of the sadeh and with the fowls of Shomayim, and with the creeping things of the adamah; and I will abolish the keshet and the cherev and the milchamah from ha'aretz, and will make them to lie down in safety.

19. [2:21] And I will betroth thee unto Me l'olam; yea, I will betroth thee unto Me in tzedek, and in mishpat, and in chesed, and in rachamim.

20. [2:22] I will even betroth thee unto Me in emunah (faithfulness, fidelity): then thou shalt know Hashem.
