Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 14:1 | O Israel, return to Jehovah your God, for you have fallen by your sin. |
| 14:2 | Take words with you and return to Jehovah. Say to Him, Take away all iniquity and receive us well, that we may repay with the calves of our lips. |
| 14:3 | Assyria shall not save us; we will not ride on horses. We shall not say any more to the work of our hands, Our gods! For in You the fatherless finds mercy. |
| 14:4 | I will heal their backslidings; I will love them freely; for My anger has turned away from him. |
| 14:5 | I will be as the dew to Israel; he shall blossom as the lily and cast out his roots like Lebanon. |
| 14:6 | His branches shall go out, and his beauty shall be like the olive tree, and his scent as Lebanon to Him. |
| 14:7 | They who live under his shadow shall return; they shall live like the grain, and blossom like the vine; their memorial shall be as the wine of Lebanon. |
| 14:8 | Ephraim shall say , What is to me any more with idols? I eyed him , and I surveyed him. I am as a green cypress tree; your fruit is found from Me. |
| 14:9 | Who is wise and discerns these things? Who is discerning and knows them? For the ways of Jehovah are right, and the righteous shall walk in them; but transgressors shall stumble in them. |
