Context Reading
3Assyria can’t save us.We won’t ride on horses;neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, ‘Our gods!’for in you the fatherless finds mercy.” 4“I will heal their waywardness.I will love them freely;for my anger is turned away from them. 5I will be like the dew to Israel.He will blossom like the lily,and send down his roots like Lebanon. 6His branches will spread,and his beauty will be like the olive tree,and his fragrance like Lebanon. 7Men will dwell in his shade.They will revive like the grain,and blossom like the vine.Their fragrance will be like the wine of Lebanon.
