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]
