6 They will be alive with new growth,and beautiful like olive trees.They will be fragrantlike the cedars of Lebanon.
7 Once again they will live under my protection.They will grow crops of grainand be fruitful like a vineyard.They will be as famous as the wine of Lebanon.
8 The people of Israel will have nothing more to do with idols;I will answer their prayers and take care of them.Like an evergreen tree I will shelter them;I am the source of all their blessings.”
9 May those who are wise understand what is written here, and may they take it to heart. The Lord's ways are right, and righteous people live by following them, but sinners stumble and fall because they ignore them.
