Hosea 14:6-8
New Catholic Bible
6 I will be like the dew to Israel;
they will blossom like a lily;
they will strike root like the cedars of Lebanon.
7 They will put out fresh shoots;
their splendor shall be like that of the olive tree
and their fragrance like the Lebanon cedar.
8 They shall again dwell in my shade
and once again flourish like grain.
They shall blossom like the vine,
and their fame will be like that of the wine of Lebanon.

His splendor will be like an olive tree,(A)

Israel’s fame will be like the wine(E) of Lebanon.(F)

I will answer him and care for him.
I am like a flourishing juniper;(H)
your fruitfulness comes from me.”
