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]])
"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]])
