21 On that day I will respond(A)—
this is the Lord’s declaration.

22 The earth will respond to the grain,(B)
the new wine, and the fresh oil,
and they will respond to Jezreel.
23 I will sow her[a] in the land for myself,(C)
and I will have compassion(D)
on Lo-ruhamah;
I will say to Lo-ammi:(E)
You are my people,(F)
and he will say, “You are my God.”
