Hosea 14:4-9

4‘Assyria will not save us. We will not ride on horses, and we will never again say, “Our god,” to the work of our hands, for with You, orphans find mercy.’”

5“I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely, for My anger will turn away from him.

6I will be like dew for Israel. He will blossom like a lily, and thrust out his roots like Lebanon.

7His tender shoots will spread out. His beauty will be like an olive tree and his fragrance will be like Lebanon.

8Those dwelling in his shadow will return. They will grow grain and bud like a vine. His renown will be like the wine of Lebanon.

9Ephraim: “What more are idols to me? I have responded and observed Him. I will be like a luxuriant cypress tree. From me will be found Your fruit.”
