22The earth shall answer

With grain,

With new wine,

And with oil;

They shall answer 1Jezreel.

23Then wI will sow her for Myself in the earth,

xAnd I will have mercy on her who had 2not obtained mercy;

Then yI will say to those who were 3not My people,

‘You are 4My people!’

And they shall say, ‘You are my God!’ ”

and they will respond to Jezreel.

I will say to Lo-ammi:

You are my people,

and he will say, “You are my God.”

NLTNew Living Translation

Then the earth will answer the thirsty cries

of the grain, the grapevines, and the olive trees.

And they in turn will answer,

‘Jezreel’—‘God plants!’

At that time I will plant a crop of Israelites

and raise them for myself.

I will show love

to those I called ‘Not loved.’

And to those I called ‘Not my people,’

I will say, ‘Now you are my people.’

And they will reply, ‘You are our God!’ ”

the grain, the wine, and the oil,

and they will answer Jezreel.

I will have pity on Lo-ruhama;

I will say to Lo-ammi,

“You are my people,”

and he himself will say, “you are my God.”

KJV 1900King James Version

And the earth shall hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil;

And they shall hear Jezreel.

And I will sow her unto me in the earth;

And I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy;

And I will say to them which were not my people, Thou art my people;

And they shall say, Thou art my God.
