God is speaking to Hosea about what he will do for Israel.
I will promise to be your husband forever
Yahweh will be like the husband, and Israel will be like Yahweh's wife. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
I will promise to be your husband in faithfulness
Yahweh will be faithful to his covenant with Israel; because of this, Israel will hopefully remain faithful to Yahweh.
And you will know me, Yahweh
Here "know" means to recognize Yahweh as their God.
