Hosea 2:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 For I will take away the names of Baal out of her mouth, and they shall be no more remembered by their [a]names.
18 And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the [b]wild beasts, and with the fowls of the heaven, and with that that creepeth upon the earth: and I will break the bow, and the sword and the battle out of the earth: and will make them to sleep safely.
19 And I will marry thee unto me forever: yea, I will marry thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in mercy, and in compassion.
