\q1
|
|
\v 1 Let me sing for my well beloved, a song of my beloved about his vineyard.
|
|
\q1 My well beloved had a vineyard on a very fertile hill.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 He spaded it and removed the stones, and planted it with a choice variety of vine.
|
|
\q1 He built a tower in the middle of it, and also built a winepress.
|
|
\q1 He waited for it to produce grapes, but it produced wild grapes.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\p
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 3 So now, inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah;
|
|
\q1 judge between me and my vineyard.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 4 What more could have been done for my vineyard, that I have not done for it?
|
|
\q1 When I looked for it to produce grapes, why did it produce wild grapes?
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 Now I will inform you what I will do to my vineyard; I will remove the hedge;
|
|
\q1 I will turn it into a pasture; I will break down its wall, and it will be trampled on.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 6 I will lay it waste, and it will not be pruned nor hoed. But briers and thorns will spring up,
|
|
\q1 I will also command the clouds not to rain on it.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 7 For the vineyard of Yahweh of hosts is the house of Israel,
|
|
\q1 and the men of Judah his pleasant planting;
|
|
\q1 he waited for justice, but instead, there was killing; for righteousness, but, instead, a cry for help.
|

\q1
|
|
\v 8 Woe to those who join house to house, who join field to field,
|
|
\q1 till no room remains, and you alone remain in the land!
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 9 Yahweh of hosts told me,
|
|
\q1 many houses will be empty, even great and impressive ones, without inhabitant.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 10 For a ten-yoke vineyard will yield only one bath, and one homer of seed will yield only an ephah.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 11 Woe to those who rise up early in the morning to look for strong drink;
|
|
\q1 who linger late into the night until wine inflames them!
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 12 They banquet with harp, lute, tambourine, flute, and wine,
|
|
\q1 but they do not recognize the work of Yahweh, nor have they considered the doings of his hands.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\p
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 13 Therefore my people have gone into captivity for lack of understanding;
|
|
\q1 their leaders go hungry, and their masses have nothing to drink.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 14 Therefore sheol has made its appetite greater and has opened its mouth very wide;
|
|
\q1 their elite, the people, their leaders, and the revelers and those who are happy among them, descend into sheol.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 15 Man is brought down, and the great man is humbled, and the eyes of the lofty are cast down.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 16 Yahweh of hosts is exalted in his justice, and God the Holy One shows himself holy by his righteousness.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 17 Then the sheep will feed as in their own pasture, and in the ruins of the rich people, lambs will graze.
|
|
|
|
\s5

\p
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 18 Woe to those who pull along iniquity with cords of emptiness and who pull along sin with a cart rope;
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 19 those who say, "Let God hurry, let him act quickly, so we can see it happen;
|
|
\q1 and let the plans of the Holy One of Israel take shape and come, so that we may know them!"
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
|
|
\q1 who represent darkness as light, and light as darkness;
|
|
\q1 who represent bitter as sweet, and sweet as bitter!
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own understanding!
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 22 Woe to those who are champions at drinking wine, and masters at mixing strong drinks;
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 23 who acquit the wicked for payment, and deprive the innocent of his rights!
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\p
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 24 Therefore as the tongue of fire devours stubble, and as the dry grass goes down in flame,
|
|
\q1 so their root will rot, and their blossom will blow away like dust,
|
|
\q1 because they have rejected the law of Yahweh of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 25 Therefore the anger of Yahweh is kindled against his people, and he has reached out with his hand against them and has punished them;
|
|
\q1 the mountains tremble, and their corpses are like garbage in the streets.
|
|
\q1 Despite all this, his anger does not subside, but his hand is still raised to strike again.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\p
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 26 He will lift up a signal flag for far away nations and will whistle for those at the end of the earth.
|
|
\q1 Look, they will come speedily and promptly.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 27 None tire or stumble among them; none slumbers or sleeps;
|
|
\q1 nor will their belt be loose, nor the thong of their sandals broken;
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 28 their arrows are sharp and all their bows are bent;
|
|
\q1 their horses' hooves are like flint, and their chariot wheels like storms.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 29 Their roaring will be like a lion, they will roar like young lions.
|
|
\q1 They will growl and seize the prey and drag it away, with none to rescue.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 30 On that day they will roar against the prey as the sea roars.
|
|
\q1 If one looks over the land, he will see darkness and distress, and the light will be darkened by the clouds.
