Hosea 14:7-9
American Standard Version
7 They that dwell under his shadow shall return; they shall revive as the grain, and blossom as the vine: [a]the scent thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon. 8 [b]Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols? I have answered, and will regard him: I am like a green fir-tree; from me is thy fruit found. 9 Who is wise, that he may understand these things? prudent, that he may know them? for the ways of Jehovah are right, and the just shall walk in them; but transgressors shall fall therein.
