Hosea 14:4-9

4I will heal their apostasy; I will love them freely, for my anger has turned from them.

5I will be like the dew to Israel; he shall blossom like the lily; he shall take root like the trees of Lebanon;

6his shoots shall spread out; his beauty shall be like the olive, and his fragrance like Lebanon.

7They shall return and dwell beneath my shadow; they shall flourish like the grain; they shall blossom like the vine; their fame shall be like the wine of Lebanon.

8O Ephraim, what have I to do with idols? It is I who answer and look after you. I am like an evergreen cypress; from me comes your fruit.

9Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; whoever is discerning, let him know them; for the ways of the Lord are right, and the upright walk in them, but transgressors stumble in them.
