4 I will heal their turning away from Me;
I will love them freely,
For My anger has turned away from them.
5 I will be like the dew to Israel;
He will flourish like the lily,
And he will take root like the cedars of Lebanon.
6 His shoots will go forth,
And his splendor will be like the olive tree
And his fragrance like the cedars of Lebanon.
7 Those who live in his shadow
Will again raise grain,
And they will flourish like the vine.
His name of remembrance will be like the wine of Lebanon.
8 O Ephraim, what more have I to do with idols?
It is I who answer and look after you.
I am like a luxuriant cypress;
From Me comes your fruit.
