“My people always wander away from me.
    But I will put an end to that.
My anger has turned away from them.
    Now I will love them freely.
⁵ I will be like the dew to Israel.
    They will bloom like a lily.
They will send their roots down deep
    like a cedar tree in Lebanon.
⁶ They will spread out like new branches.
    They will be as beautiful as an olive tree.
    They will smell as sweet as the cedar trees in Lebanon.
