Hosea 2:22-23

The Voice

²²     And the land will give the grain and wine and oil the fertile soil they need to develop,
        and the crops will shout back to Me, “God sows!”^[a]
23     I won’t just restore the agricultural abundance;
        I’ll sow into My beloved land and plant the people in the land and make them My own.
    To the one who has not been shown mercy,^[b]
        I’ll rename her Mercy.
    I’ll tell Not My People,^[c] “You are now My People!”
        and he’ll respond, “You’re my God!”^[d]
