Hosea 14:5 in Context — Hosea 14

3 L’Assyrien ne nous sauvera pas, nous ne monterons pas sur des chevaux, Et nous ne dirons plus à l’ouvrage de nos mains: Notre Dieu! Car c’est auprès de toi que l’orphelin trouve compassion.

4 Je réparerai leur infidélité, J’aurai pour eux un amour sincère; Car ma colère s’est détournée d’eux.

5 Je serai comme la rosée pour Israël, Il fleurira comme le lis, Et il poussera des racines comme le Liban.

6 Ses rameaux s’étendront; Il aura la magnificence de l’olivier, Et les parfums du Liban.

7 Ils reviendront s’asseoir à son ombre, Ils redonneront la vie au froment, Et ils fleuriront comme la vigne; Ils auront la renommée du vin du Liban.
