| 2:1 | Say ye unto your brethren, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah. |
| 2:2 | Plead with your mother, plead: for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband: let her therefore put away her whoredoms out of her sight, and her adulteries from between her breasts; |
| 2:3 | Lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and slay her with thirst. |
| 2:4 | And I will not have mercy upon her children; for they be the children of whoredoms. |
| 2:5 | For their mother hath played the harlot: she that conceived them hath done shamefully: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, mine oil and my drink. |
| 2:6 | Therefore, behold, I will hedge up thy way with thorns, and make a wall, that she shall not find her paths. |
| 2:7 | And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now. |
| 2:8 | For she did not know that I gave her corn, and wine, and oil, and multiplied her silver and gold, which they prepared for Baal. |
| 2:9 | Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in the time thereof, and my wine in the season thereof, and will recover my wool and my flax given to cover her nakedness. |
| 2:10 | And now will I discover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and none shall deliver her out of mine hand. |
| 2:11 | I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts. |
| 2:12 | And I will destroy her vines and her fig trees, whereof she hath said, These are my rewards that my lovers have given me: and I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them. |
| 2:13 | And I will visit upon her the days of Baalim, wherein she burned incense to them, and she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and she went after her lovers, and forgat me, saith the LORD. |
| 2:14 | Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her. |
| 2:15 | And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt. |
| 2:16 | And it shall be at that day, saith the LORD, that thou shalt call me Ishi; and shalt call me no more Baali. |
| 2:17 | For I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name. |
| 2:18 | And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely. |
| 2:18 | 當那日我必為我的民、與田野的走獸、和空中的飛鳥、並地上的昆蟲立約．又必在國中折斷弓刀、止息爭戰、使他們安然躺臥。 |
| 2:18 | 当那日，我必为我的民，与田野的走兽，和空中的飞鸟，并地上的昆虫立约。又必在国中折断弓刀，止息争战，使他们安然躺卧。 |
| job:5:23 | For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field: and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee. |
| isa:11:6 | The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. |
| isa:11:7 | And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. |
| isa:11:8 | And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den. |
| isa:11:9 | They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. |
| eze:34:25 | And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods. |
| psm:46:9 | He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire. |
| isa:2:4 | And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. |
| eze:39:9 | And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years: |
| eze:39:10 | So that they shall take no wood out of the field, neither cut down any out of the forests; for they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall spoil those that spoiled them, and rob those that robbed them, saith the Lord GOD. |
| lev:26:5 | And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely. |
| jer:23:6 | In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. |

| 2:19 | And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies. |
| 2:20 | I will even betroth thee unto me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know the LORD. |
| 2:21 | And it shall come to pass in that day, I will hear, saith the LORD, I will hear the heavens, and they shall hear the earth; |
| 2:22 | And the earth shall hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall hear Jezreel. |
| 2:23 | And I will sow her unto me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them which were not my people, Thou art my people; and they shall say, Thou art my God. |
