'Declares' in the Bible

“I will punish her for the days of the BaalsWhen she used to offer sacrifices to themAnd adorn herself with her earrings and jewelry,And follow her lovers, so that she forgot Me,” declares the Lord.

“It will come about in that day,” declares the Lord,“That you will call Me IshiAnd will no longer call Me Baali.

“It will come about in that day that I will respond,” declares the Lord.“I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth,

They will come trembling like birds from EgyptAnd like doves from the land of Assyria;And I will settle them in their houses, declares the Lord.
