Hosea 2:21-23
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
21 On that day I will answer, says the Lord,
I will answer the heavens,
and they shall answer the earth,
22 and the earth shall answer the grain, the wine, and the oil,
and they shall answer Jezreel,[a](A)
23 and I will sow him[b] for myself in the land.
And I will have pity on Lo-ruhamah,[c]
and I will say to Lo-ammi,[d] “You are my people,”
and he shall say, “You are my God.”(B)

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!’”
