This refers to the day when Israel chooses to worship only Yahweh.

# this is Yahweh's declaration

Yahweh speaks of himself by name to express the certainty of what he is declaring. See how you translated this in [Hosea 2:13](./12.md). AT: "this is what Yahweh has declared" or "this is what I, Yahweh, have declared" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person]])

# My husband

This means the people of Israel will love and be faithful to Yahweh just as a wife is to a husband. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# My Baal
|
|
|
|
"Baal" means "master" and also refers to the false god that the Canaanites worship. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# For I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth
|
|
|
|
The Israelites will not speak the names of Baal and the idols again. The people are represented by their mouths. AT: "For I will cause you to not speak the names of the Baals" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]]) |
