Isaiah 5 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
Song of the Vineyard
1 I will sing to my beloved the canticle of my cousin concerning his vineyard. A vineyard was made to my beloved in horn, the son of oil.
2 And he hedged it, and chose stones out of it, and planted it elect, and built a tower in the midst thereof, and set up a press therein: and looked that it should yield grapes, and it yielded wild grapes.
3 Now therefore ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Juda, judge between me and my vineyard.
4 What is there that I ought to do more to my vineyard, and have not done to it? Whether that I looked, it should yield grapes, and it hath yielded wild grapes?
5 And now I will shew you what I will do to my vineyard. I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be into spoil: I will throw down the wall thereof, and it shall be to be trodden upon.
6 And I will lay it waste: it shall not be pruned, and it shall not be digged: and briers and thorns shall overgrow it: and I will command the clouds that they rain no shower upon it.
7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts, is the house of Israel: and the man of Juda, his delectable bud: & I looked that it should do judgement, and behold iniquity: and justice, and behold clamour.
