Isaiah 5:2-7
2He dugH5823 it allH5823 aroundH5823, clearedH5619 it ofH5619 stonesH5619, And plantedH5193 it with 1the 2choicestH8321 vineH8321. And He builtH1129 a towerH4026 in the middleH8432 of it, And alsoH1571 carvedH2672 outH2672 a 3wineH3342 vatH3342 in it; Then He 4expectedH6960 it to produceH6213 good grapesH6025, But it producedH6213 only 5worthlessH891 onesH891.
3“And nowH6258, you inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 and peopleH376 of JudahH3063, 6JudgeH8199 betweenH996 Me and My vineyardH3754.47WhatH4100 moreH5750 was there to doH6213 for My vineyardH3754 8that I have not doneH6213 in it? WhyH4069, when I expectedH6960 it to produceH6213 good grapesH6025 did it produceH6213 9worthlessH891 onesH891?5So nowH6258 let Me tellH3045 you whatH834 I am going to doH6213 to My vineyardH3754: I will 10removeH5493 its hedgeH4905 and it will be consumedH1197; I will 11breakH6555 downH6555 its wallH1447 and it will becomeH1961 12trampledH4823 groundH4823.6I will 13layH7896 it wasteH1326; It will not be prunedH2168 nor hoedH5737, But briarsH8068 and thornsH7898 will comeH5927 upH5927. I will also commandH6680 the cloudsH5645 not to 14rainH4305H4306 on it.”
7For the 15vineyardH3754 of the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 is the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, And the peopleH376 of JudahH3063 are His delightfulH8191 plantH5194. So He waitedH6960 for justiceH4941, but beholdH2009, there was 16bloodshedH4939; For righteousnessH6666, but beholdH2009, a cryH6818 forH6818 helpH6818.
