Hosea 2:21-23
New Living Translation
21 “In that day, I will answer,”
says the Lord.
“I will answer the sky as it pleads for clouds.
And the sky will answer the earth with rain.
22 Then the earth will answer the thirsty cries
of the grain, the grapevines, and the olive trees.
And they in turn will answer,
‘Jezreel’—‘God plants!’
23 At that time I will plant a crop of Israelites
and raise them for myself.
I will show love
to those I called ‘Not loved.’[a]
And to those I called ‘Not my people,’[b]
I will say, ‘Now you are my people.’
And they will reply, ‘You are our God!’”
