--Hosea-- And I will sow her unto me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to [them which were] not my people, Thou [art] my people; and they shall say, [Thou art] my God. (2:23) --Epistle to the Romans-- As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved. (9:25) --1 Peter-- Which in time past [were] not a people, but [are] now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. (2:10) |
