Hosea 2:8-17

New International Version

⁸She has not acknowledged^(A) that I was the one
who gave her the grain, the new wine and oil,^(B)
who lavished on her the silver and gold^(C)—
which they used for Baal.^(D)

⁹“Therefore I will take away my grain^(E) when it ripens,
    and my new wine^(F) when it is ready.
I will take back my wool and my linen,
    intended to cover her naked body.
¹⁰So now I will expose^(G) her lewdness
    before the eyes of her lovers;^(H)
    no one will take her out of my hands.^(I)
¹¹I will stop^(J) all her celebrations:^(K)
    her yearly festivals, her New Moons,
    her Sabbath days—all her appointed festivals.^(L)
¹²I will ruin her vines^(M) and her fig trees,^(N)
    which she said were her pay from her lovers;^(O)
I will make them a thicket,^(P)
    and wild animals will devour them.^(Q)
¹³I will punish her for the days
    she burned incense^(R) to the Baals;^(S)
she decked herself with rings and jewelry,^(T)
    and went after her lovers,^(U)
    but me she forgot,^(V)”
declares the Lord.^(W)

¹⁴“Therefore I am now going to allure her;
    I will lead her into the wilderness^(X)
    and speak tenderly to her.
¹⁵There I will give her back her vineyards,
    and will make the Valley of Achor^[a]^(Y) a door of hope.
There she will respond^[b]^(Z) as in the days of her youth,^(AA)
    as in the day she came up out of Egypt.^(AB)

¹⁶“In that day,” declares the Lord,
    “you will call me ‘my husband’;^(AC)
    you will no longer call me ‘my master.^[c]’
¹⁷I will remove the names of the Baals from her lips;^(AD)
    no longer will their names be invoked.^(AE)
