10 Yet the number of the children of Israel will be as the sand of the sea, which can’t be measured or counted; and it will come to pass that, in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’ 11 The children of Judah and the children of Israel will be gathered together, and they will appoint themselves one head, and will go up from the land; for great will be the day of Jezreel.

“Say to your brothers, ‘My people!’[a]

    and to your sisters, ‘My loved one!’[b]

You are not my people,
they will be called: Sons of the living God.(B)
11 And the Judeans and the Israelites
will be gathered together.(C)
