Hosea 2:21-23
Christian Standard Bible
21 On that day I will respond(A)—
this is the Lord’s declaration.
I will respond to the sky,
and it will respond to the earth.
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.”

I will answer the heavens,

And I will have pity on Lo-ruhamah,[c]
and I will say to Lo-ammi,[d] “You are my people,”
