Hosea 2:21-23
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!’ ”
