From there I will give back her vineyards to her, and turn the "Valley of Trouble" into an "Opportunity for Hope." There she will sing as she did when she was young, when she came up from the land of Egypt.

I will be like a lion to Ephraim, like a young lion to the house of Judah. I myself will tear them to pieces, then I will carry them off, and no one will be able to rescue them!

When Israel was a young man, I loved him like a son, and I summoned my son out of Egypt.

His young shoots will grow; his splendor will be like an olive tree, his fragrance like a cedar of Lebanon.
