Hosea 2:21-23
New American Standard Bible
21 “And it will come about on that day that (A)I will respond,” declares the Lord.
“I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth,
22 And the (B)earth will respond to the grain, to the new wine, and to the oil,
And they will respond to [a]Jezreel.
23 I will (C)sow her for Myself in the land.
(D)I will also have compassion on [b]her who had not obtained compassion,
And (E)I will say to [c]those who were (F)not My people,
‘You are My people!’
And [d]they will say, ‘You are my God!’”

New King James Version
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!’ ”
