He spreads snow like wool;
He scatters frost like ashes;

Then the remnant of Jacob
will be among the nations, among many peoples,
like a lion among animals of the forest,
like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
which tramples and tears as it passes through,
and there is no one to rescue them.

His new branches will spread,
and his splendor will be like the olive tree,
his fragrance, like the forest of Lebanon.

W Like an apricot tree among the trees of the forest,
so is my love among the young men.

and his fruit is sweet to my taste.

When it became known to the house of David that Aram had occupied Ephraim, the heart of Ahaz and the hearts of his people trembled like trees of a forest shaking in the wind.

that consumes thorns and briers
and kindles the forest thickets
so that they go up in a column of smoke.

Isn’t it true that in just a little while
Lebanon will become an orchard,
and the orchard will seem like a forest?

and the orchard will seem like a forest.

like a lion in the forest.
