Hosea 2:19-23 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

19. I will betroth you to me for ever;I will betroth you in righteousness and justice,in love and compassion.

20. I will betroth you in faithfulness,and you will acknowledge the Lord.

21. ‘In that day I will respond,’declares the Lord –‘I will respond 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,and they will respond to Jezreel.

23. I will plant her for myself in the land;I will show my love to the one I called “Not my loved one”.I will say to those called “Not my people”, “You are my people”;and they will say, “You are my God.” ’
