In the days of King Josiah the LORD asked me, “Have you seen what unfaithful Israel has done? She has ascended every high hill and gone under every green tree to prostitute herself there.
“Indifferent to[fn] her prostitution, she defiled the land and committed adultery with stones and trees.

Because you have spoken this word,
I am going to make my words
become fire in your mouth.

it doesn’t fear when heat comes,
and its foliage remains green.
It will not worry in a year of drought
or cease producing fruit.
They will come and shout for joy on the heights of Zion;
they will be radiant with joy
because of the LORD’s goodness,
because of the grain, the new wine, the fresh oil,
and because of the young of the flocks and herds.
Their life will be like an irrigated garden,
and they will no longer grow weak from hunger.
