Hosea 2:21-23
Young's Literal Translation
21 And it hath come to pass in that day, I answer -- an affirmation of Jehovah, I answer the heavens, and they answer the earth.
22 And the earth doth answer the corn, And the new wine, and the oil, And they answer Jezreel.
23 And I have sowed her to Me in the land, And I have pitied Lo-Ruhamah, And I have said to Lo-Ammi, My people thou [art], and it saith, My God!'

Hosea 2:21-23
New International Version
21 “In that day I will respond,”
declares the Lord—
“I will respond(A) to the skies,
and they will respond to the earth;
22 and the earth will respond to the grain,
the new wine and the olive oil,(B)
and they will respond to Jezreel.[a](C)
23 I will plant(D) her for myself in the land;
I will show my love to the one I called ‘Not my loved one.[b](E)’
I will say to those called ‘Not my people,[c]’ ‘You are my people’;(F)
and they will say, ‘You are my God.(G)’”
