18 And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the [a]wild beasts, and with the fowls of the heaven, and with that that creepeth upon the earth: and I will break the bow, and the sword and the battle out of the earth: and will make them to sleep safely.

19 And I will marry thee unto me forever: yea, I will marry thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in mercy, and in compassion.

20 I will even marry thee unto me in [b]faithfulness, and thou shalt know the Lord.
