Revised Version 1895
Isaiah 5:4-13
4WhatH4100 couldH4100 have been doneH6213 moreH5750 to my vineyardH3754, that I have notH3808 doneH6213 in it? wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapesH6025, broughtH6213 it forth wild grapesH6025?
5And nowH6258 goH1961 to; I will tellH3045 youH834 whatH834 I will doH6213 to my vineyardH3754: I will takeH5493 awayH5493 the hedgeH4881 thereof, and it shall be eaten upH853; I will breakH6555 downH6555 the fenceH1447 thereof, and it shall be trodden downH6555:
6and I will layH7896 it wasteH1326; it shall notH3808 be prunedH2168 norH3808 hoed; but there shall comeH5927 upH5927 briersH7898 and thornsH7898: I will also commandH6680 the cloudsH5645 that they rainH4306 noH3808 rainH4306 uponH5921 it.
7For the vineyardH3754 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and the menH376 of JudahH3063 his pleasant plantH5194: and he lookedH2009 for judgmentH4941, but beholdH2009 oppression; for righteousnessH6666, but beholdH2009 a cryH6818.
8WoeH1945 unto them that joinH7126 houseH1004 to houseH1004, that lay fieldH7704 to fieldH7704, tillH5704 there be noH657 roomH1004, and ye be madeH7126 to dwellH3427 aloneH905 in the midstH7130 of the landH776!
9In mine earsH241 saith the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, Of a truth manyH7227 housesH1004 shall be desolateH8047, evenH3808 greatH1419 and fair, withoutH3808 inhabitantH3427.
10For tenH6235 acresH6776 of vineyardH3754 shall yieldH6213 one bathH1324, and a homer of seedH2233 shall yieldH6213 but an ephahH374.
11WoeH1945 unto them that riseH7925 upH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, that they may followH7291 strongH7941 drinkH7941; that tarryH309 lateH309 into the night, till wineH3196 inflameH1814 them!
12And the harpH3658 and the lute, the tabret and the pipe, and wineH3196, are in their feasts: but they regardH7200 notH3808 the workH4639 of the LORDH3068, neitherH3808 have they consideredH7200 the operation of his handsH3027.
13Therefore my peopleH5971 are goneH1540 intoH1540 captivityH1540, for lackH1097 of knowledgeH1847: and their honourable menH4962 are famishedH7458, and their multitudeH1995 are parchedH6704 with thirstH6772.
