8. Again they will live in his shade;they will raise grain,They will blossom like the vine,and his renown will be like the wine of Lebanon.
9. Ephraim! What more have I to do with idols?I have humbled him, but I will take note of him.I am like a verdant cypress tree.From me fruit will be found for you!
10. Who is wise enough to understand these things?Who is intelligent enough to know them?Straight are the paths of the Lord,the just walk in them,but sinners stumble in them.
