For behold, I am for you, and I will turn to you, and you shall be tilled and sown.

See, I care about you, and I will pay attention to you. Your ground will be plowed and your crops planted.

For indeed, I am on your side; I will turn to you, and you will be plowed and planted.

For, behold, I am for you, and I will come to you, and you will be tilled and sown.

The dry and empty land will be farmed again. Everyone who passes through it will see that it is no longer empty.

The Lord who rules over all is with us. The God of Jacob is like a fort to us.

“ So at that time I will answer her,” announces the Lord.“ I will command the skies to send rain on the earth.Then the earth will produce grain, olive oil and fresh wine. And Israel will be called Jezreel. That’s because I will answer her prayers.I will plant her in the land for myself. I will show my love to the one I called Not My Loved One. I will say,‘ You are my people’ to those who were called Not My People. And they will say,‘ You are my God.’ ”

“ Your seeds will grow well. Your vines will bear fruit. The ground will produce crops for you. And the heavens will drop their dew on your land. I will give all these things to those who are still left alive here.

Lord our God, you answered them. You showed Israel that you are a God who forgives. But when they did wrong, you punished them.

What should we say then? Since God is on our side, who can be against us?

“ At that time fresh wine will drip from the mountains. Milk will flow down from the hills. Water will run through all Judah’s valleys. A fountain will flow out of my temple. It will water the places where acacia trees grow.

Bring the entire tenth to the storerooms in my temple. Then there will be plenty of food. Test me this way,” says the Lord.“ Then you will see that I will throw open the windows of heaven. I will pour out so many blessings that you will not have enough room to store them.I will keep bugs from eating up your crops. And your grapes will not drop from the vines before they are ripe,” says the Lord.

Are any seeds still left in your barns? Until now, your vines and fig trees have not produced any fruit. Your pomegranate and olive trees have not produced any either.“‘ But from this day on I will bless you.’ ”
