10 “And the number of the sons of Israel must become like the grains of the sand of the sea that cannot be measured or numbered.+ And it must occur that in the place in which it used to be said to them, ‘YOU men are not my people,’+ it will be said to them, ‘The sons of the living God.’*+

23 And I shall certainly sow her like seed for me in the earth,+ and I will show mercy to her who was not shown mercy,*+ and I will say to those not my people:* “You are my people”;+ and they, for their part,* will say: “[You are] my God.”’”*+

25 It is as he says also in Ho·seʹa: “Those not my people+ I will call ‘my people,’ and her who was not beloved ‘beloved’;+

11 Therefore I ask, Did they stumble so that they fell+ completely? Never may that happen! But by their false step+ there is salvation to people of the nations,+ to incite them to jealousy.+

10 For YOU were once not a people, but are now God’s people;+ YOU were those who had not been shown mercy, but are now those who have been shown mercy.+
