Hosea 14:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ ·They will be like spreading branches [^LHis shoots will spread out],
    like the beautiful olive trees
    and the sweet-smelling cedars in Lebanon.
⁷ ·The people of Israel will again live under my protection [or People will again live under Israel’s protection/shade].
    They will ·grow [flourish] like the grain,
they will bloom like a vine,
    and they will be as famous as the wine of Lebanon.
⁸ ·Israel [^LEphraim; 4:17], have nothing to do with idols.
    I, the Lord, am the one who answers your prayers and ·watches over [cares for] you.
I am like a ·green [flourishing; evergreen] ·pine tree [or juniper; or cypress];
    your ·blessings [^Lfruit] come from me.”
