"Therefore
"Then I will give her her vineyards from there , And the valley of Achor as a door of hope . And she will sing there as in the days of her youth , As in the day when she came up from the land of Egypt .
"It will come about in that day ," declares the LORD , "That you will call Me Ishi And will no longer call Me Baali .
"For I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth , So that they will be mentioned by their names no more .
"In that day I will also make a covenant for them With the beasts of the field , The birds of the sky And the creeping things of the ground . And I will abolish the bow , the sword and war from the land , And will make them lie down in safety .
"I will betroth you to Me forever ; Yes, I will betroth you to Me in righteousness and in justice , In lovingkindness and in compassion ,
And I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness . Then you will know the LORD .
"It will come about in that day that I will respond ," declares the LORD . "I will respond to the heavens , and they will respond to the earth ,
And the earth will respond to the grain , to the new wine and to the oil , And they will respond to Jezreel .
"I will sow her for Myself in the land . I will also have compassion on her who had not obtained compassion , And I will say to those who were not My people , 'You are My people !' And they will say , 'You are my God !' "
