14
I was exalted like a palm tree in En-gedi, and as a rose plant in Jericho, as a fair olive tree in a pleasant field, and grew up as a plane tree by the water.
15
I gave a sweet smell like cinnamon and aspalathus, and I yielded a pleasant odor like the best myrrh, as galbanum, and onycha, and sweet storax, and as the fume of frankincense in the tabernacle.
16
As the turpentine tree I stretched out my branches, and my branches are the branches of honor and grace.
17
As the vine brought I forth pleasant savor, and my flowers are the fruit of honor and riches.
18
I am the mother of fair love and fear and knowledge and holy hope; I therefore, being eternal, am given to all my children which are named by Him.
19
"Come unto me, all ye that be desirous of me, and fill yourselves with my fruits.
20
For my memorial is sweeter than honey, and mine inheritance than the honeycomb.
21
They that eat me shall yet be hungry, and they that drink me shall yet be thirsty.
22
He that obeyeth me shall never be confounded, and they that work by me shall not do amiss."
23
All these things are the book of the covenant of the Most High God, even the law which Moses commanded for a heritage unto the congregations of Jacob.
24
Faint not to be strong in the Lord; that He may confirm you, cleave unto Him; for the Lord Almighty is God alone, and besides Him there is no other Savior.
