Hosea 14:5-7

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁵I will be like the dew to Israel;
    he shall blossom like the lily,
    he shall strike root like the forests of Lebanon.^[a]
⁶His shoots shall spread out;
    his beauty shall be like the olive tree,
    and his fragrance like that of Lebanon.
⁷They shall again live beneath my^[b] shadow,
    they shall flourish as a garden;^[c]
they shall blossom like the vine,
    their fragrance shall be like the wine of Lebanon.
