21 On that day I will answer,
    declares the Lord;
I will answer the heavens,
    and they will answer the earth.
22 The earth will answer the grain,
    the wine, and the oil;
    and they will answer Jezreel.
23 Then I will sow her for Myself in the earth.
    I will have mercy upon Lo-Ruhamah,
and I will say to Lo-Ammi, “You are My people,”
    and they will say, “You are my God.”

21 “It shall come to pass in that day
That (A)I will answer,” says the Lord;
“I will answer the heavens,
And they shall answer the earth.
22 The earth shall answer
With grain,
With new wine,
And with oil;
They shall answer [a]Jezreel.
23 Then (B)I will sow her for Myself in the earth,
(C)And I will have mercy on her who had [b]not obtained mercy;
Then (D)I will say to those who were [c]not My people,
‘You are [d]My people!’
And they shall say, ‘You are my God!’ ”
