Hosea 14:6
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
6 His shoots shall spread out;
his beauty shall be like the olive tree
and his fragrance like that of Lebanon.(A)
Hosea 14:6
Complete Jewish Bible
6 (5) I will be like dew to Isra’el;
he will blossom like a lily
and strike roots like the L’vanon.
Hosea 14:6-8
The Message
4-8 “I will heal their waywardness.
I will love them lavishly. My anger is played out.
I will make a fresh start with Israel.
He’ll burst into bloom like a crocus in the spring.
He’ll put down deep oak tree roots,
he’ll become a forest of oaks!
He’ll become splendid—like a giant sequoia,
his fragrance like a grove of cedars!
Those who live near him will be blessed by him,
be blessed and prosper like golden grain.
Everyone will be talking about them,
spreading their fame as the vintage children of God.
Ephraim is finished with gods that are no-gods.
From now on I’m the one who answers and satisfies him.
I am like a luxuriant fruit tree.
Everything you need is to be found in me.”
