Hosea 1:10

9 Then God said:
“Call his name¹ Lo-Ammi,
For you are not My people,
And I will not be your God.

The Restoration of Israel

10 “Yet ^athe number of the children of Israel
Shall be as the sand of the sea,
Which cannot be measured or numbered.
^bAnd it shall come to pass
In the place where it was said to them,
‘You are¹ not My ^cpeople,’
There it shall be said to them,
‘You are ^dsons of the living God.’

11 ^aThen the children of Judah and the children of Israel
Shall be gathered together,
And appoint for themselves one head;
And they shall come up out of the land,
For great will be the day of Jezreel!
