Hosea 2:14-23

Coverdale(i) 14 Wherfore beholde, I wil call her againe, bringe her in to a wildernes, and speake frendly vnto her: 15 there wil I geue her hir vynyardes agayne, yee and the valley of Achor also, to shewe hir hope & comforte. Then shal she synge there as in the tyme of hir youth, & like as in the daye when she came out of the londe of Egipte. 16 Then (saieth the LORDE) she shal saye vnto me: O my hou?bande, & shal call me nomore Baal: 17 for I wil take awaye those names of Baal from hir mouth, yee she shal neuer remembre their names eny more. 18 Then will I make a couenaunt with them, with the wylde beastes, with the foules of the ayre, & with euerythinge that crepeth vpon the earth. As for bowe, swerde and batel, I will destroye soch out of the londe, & wil make them to slepe safely. 19 Thus wil I mary the vnto myne owne self for euermore: yee euen to my self wil I mary the, in rightuousnesse, in equyte, in louynge kyndnesse and mercy. 20 In faith also will I mary the vnto my self, & thou shalt knowe the LORDE. 21 At the same tyme wil I shewe my self frendly and gracious vnto ye heauens, saieth the LORDE: & the heauens shal helpe the earth, 22 and the earth shal helpe the corne, wyne and oyle, and they shal helpe Iesrael. 23 I wil sowe them vpo earth, for a sede to myne owne self, & wil haue mercy vpon her, yt was without mercy. And to the which were not my people, I wil saye: thou art my people. And he shal saye: thou art my God.
