Hosea 14:7-9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
7 and his shoots will go forth.(A)
His splendor will be like the olive tree
and his fragrance like Lebanon cedar.(B)
8 Again they will live in his shade;
they will raise grain,
They will blossom like the vine,
and his renown will be like the wine of Lebanon.
9 Ephraim! What more have I to do with idols?(C)
I have humbled him, but I will take note of him.
I am like a verdant cypress tree.[a]
From me fruit will be found for you!
Hosea 14:7-9
New International Version
7 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)
8 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.”
