14 “Return, O YOU renegade sons,”+ is the utterance of Jehovah. “For I myself have become the husbandly owner of YOU people;+ and I will take YOU, one out of a city and two out of a family, and I will bring YOU to Zion.+

8 “‘And I came passing along by you and got to see you, and, look! your time was the time for love’s expressions.+ So I proceeded to spread my skirt over you+ and to cover your nudeness and to make a sworn statement to you and enter into a covenant with you,’+ is the utterance of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah, ‘and so you became mine.+

16 And it must occur in that day,’ is the utterance of Jehovah, ‘that you will call [me] My husband,* and you will no longer call me My owner.’*+
