Hosea 14:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
8 They that dwell under his [a]shadow, shall return: they shall revive as the corn, and flourish as the vine: the scent thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon.
9 Ephraim shall say, What have I to do anymore with idols? I [b]have heard him, and looked upon him: I am like a green fir tree: upon me is thy fruit found.
