People will dwell again in his shade;(A)
    they will flourish like the grain,
they will blossom(B) like the vine—
    Israel’s fame will be like the wine(C) of Lebanon.(D)
Ephraim, what more have I[a] to do with idols?(E)
    I will answer him and care for him.
I am like a flourishing juniper;(F)
    your fruitfulness comes from me.”

Who is wise?(G) Let them realize these things.
    Who is discerning? Let them understand.(H)
The ways of the Lord are right;(I)
    the righteous walk(J) in them,
    but the rebellious stumble in them.
