Hosea 14:6

A Promise Of Restoration

⁵ I will be like the dew to Israel;
he will blossom like the lily
and take root like the cedars of Lebanon.
⁶ His new branches will spread,
and his splendor will be like the olive tree,
his fragrance, like the forest of Lebanon.
⁷ The people will return and live beneath his shade.
They will grow grain
and blossom like the vine.
His renown will be like the wine of Lebanon.
