I will be like the dew to Israel.
    Israel will blossom like the lily.
    He will grow like the cedar trees of Lebanon.
His branches will grow,
    and he will be like a beautiful olive tree.
He will be like the sweet smell
    from the cedar trees of Lebanon.
The people of Israel will again live under my protection.
    They will grow like grain.
They will bloom like a vine.
    They will be like the wine of Lebanon.
