I have answered, and will regard him: I am like a green fir-tree; from me is thy fruit found. |
| Hosea 14:9 | He who is wise will see these things; he who has good sense will have knowledge of them. For the ways of the Lord are straight, and the upright will go in them, but sinners will be falling in them. | | Who is wise, that he may understand these things? prudent, that he may know them? for the ways of Jehovah are right, and the just shall walk in them; but transgressors shall fall therein. |
