Hosea 2:14 Context
12And I will destroy her vines and her figge trees, whereof she hath said; These are my rewards that my louers haue giuen me: and I will make them a forrest, and the beasts of the field shall eate them. 13And I will visite vpon her the daies of Baalim, wherein she burnt incense to them, and she decked her selfe with her eare-rings, and her Iewels, and she went after her louers, and forgate me, saith the Lord. 14¶ Therefore behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wildernesse, and speake comfortably vnto her. 15And I wil giue her, her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a doore of hope, and she shall sing there, as in the dayes of her youth, and as in the day when she came vp out of the land of Egypt. 16And it shall be at that day, saith the Lord, that thou shalt call mee Ishi; and shalt call mee no more Baali.
