19. I will betroth you to me forever.Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, in justice, in loving kindness, and in compassion.
20. I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness;and you shall know the Lord.
21. It will happen in that day, I will respond,” says the Lord,“I will respond to the heavens,and they will respond to the earth;
22. and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil;and they will respond to Jezreel.
23. I will sow her to me in the earth;and I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy;and I will tell those who were not my people, ‘You are my people;’and they will say, ‘My God!’”
