Hosea 2:16-18

The Voice

¹⁶ And I swear when that day comes, she’ll call Me “my husband” and never address Me again as “my master” as she did those other gods. ¹⁷ She’ll never invoke the name of any other master again.

Everyone will forget that gods by that name ever existed. ¹⁸ When that day comes, this is what I’ll do for My people: I’ll make a covenant for them with the wild animals and flying birds and crawling insects, and they’ll agree never to devour her crops again. I’ll smash all the bows and swords and weapons that could be used to invade their land, and they’ll live in security.
