Hosea 2:13-17 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

13. I will punish her for the days of the Baals, to whom she burns incense, and she decked herself with her ornamental ring and jewelry, and she went after her lovers, and forgot me —a declaration of Yahweh.

14. Therefore, Look! I am going to allure her and bring her into the desert, and I will speak tenderly to her.

15. From there I will give her her vineyards, and the Valley of Achor as a doorway of hope. And there she will respond, as in the days of her youth, just as in the day of her coming out of the land of Egypt.

16. And on that day— a declaration of Yahweh— you will call me, “My husband;” you will no longer call me, “My Baal.”

17. I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth, and they will no longer be mentioned by their name.
