17 For I will remove the names of the Baal idols from your lips, so that you will never again utter their names!”
18 “At that time I will make a covenant for them with the wild animals, the birds of the air, and the creatures that crawl on the ground. I will abolish the warrior’s bow and sword – that is, every weapon of warfare – from the land, and I will allow them to live securely.”
19 I will commit myself to you forever; I will commit myself to you in righteousness and justice, in steadfast love and tender compassion.
20 I will commit myself to you in faithfulness; then you will acknowledge the Lord.”
21 “At that time, I will willingly respond,” declares the Lord.“I will respond to the sky, and the sky will respond to the ground;
22 then the ground will respond to the grain, the new wine, and the olive oil; and they will respond to ‘God Plants’ (Jezreel)!
