16 And at that day, sayeth the Lord, thou shalt call me Ishi, and shalt call me no more Baali.

17 For I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall be no more remembred by their names.

18 And in that day wil I make a couenant for them, with the wilde beasts, and with the foules of the heauen, and with that that creepeth vpon the earth: and I will breake the bowe, and the sworde and the battell out of the earth, and will make them to sleepe safely.

19 And I wil marry thee vnto me for euer: yea, I will marry thee vnto me in righteousnes, and in iudgement, and in mercy and in compassion.

20 I will euen marry thee vnto me in faithfulnes, and thou shalt knowe the Lord.

21 And in that day I wil heare, saith the Lord, I will euen heare the heauens, and they shall heare the earth,

22 And the earth shall heare the corne, & the wine, and the oyle, and they shall heare Izreel.

23 And I will sowe her vnto me in the earth, and I will haue mercie vpon her, that was not pitied, and I will say to them which were not my people, Thou art my people; they shal say, Thou art my God.
