16 And at that day (saith the Lord) thou shalt call me, O my husbande, and shalt call me no more Baal. 17 For I wyll take away those names of Baal from her mouth, yea she shall neuer remember their names any more. 18 Then wyll I make a couenaunt for them, with the beastes of the fielde, with the foules of the ayre, and with euery thing that creepeth vpon the earth: As for bowe, sworde, and battayle, I wyll destroy out of the lande, and wyll make them to sleepe safely. 19 And I wyll marry thee vnto myne owne selfe for euer, yea euen to my selfe wyll I marry thee in righteousnes, in iudgement, in louing kindnesse and mercy. 20 In faythfulnesse also wyll I marry thee vnto my selfe, and thou shalt know the Lorde.
