72 And He fenced it and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also made a winepress therein; And He looked, that it should bring forth grapes, And it brought forth wild grapes.'

73 "And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, Judge, I pray you, betwixt Me and My vineyard.

74 What could have been done more to My vineyard that I have not done in it? Wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, it brought forth wild grapes.

75 And now, go to; I will tell you what I will do to My vineyard: I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; And I will break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down;

76 And I will lay it waste. It shall not be pruned nor digged, but there shall come up briers and thorns. I will also command the clouds, that they rain no rain upon it."

77 For the vineyard of the Lord of Hosts is the house of Israel, And the men of Judah, His pleasant plant; And He looked for judgment, and behold, oppression; For righteousness, and behold, a cry.

78 Wo unto them that join house to house! till there can be no place that they may be placed alone in the midst of the earth.

79 In mine ears saith the Lord of Hosts, "Of a truth, many houses shall be desolate, And great and fair cities without inhabitant.

80 Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, And the seed of a homer shall yield an ephah."

81 Wo unto them that rise up early in the morning! that they may follow strong drink, that continue until night and wine inflame them.

82 And the harp and the viol, the tabret and pipe, and wine are in their feasts; But they regard not the work of the Lord, Neither consider the operation of His hands.
