6. The people will be like spreading branches.They will be like the beautiful olive trees.They will be like the sweet-smelling cedars in Lebanon.
7. The people of Israel will again live under my protection.They will grow like the grain.They will bloom like a vine.They will be as famous as the wine of Lebanon.
8. Israel, have nothing to do with idols.I, the Lord, am the one who answers your prayers.I am the one who watches over you.I am like a green pine tree.Your blessings come from me.”
