Now will I singH7891 to my wellbelovedH3039 a songH7892 of my belovedH1730 touching his vineyardH3754. My wellbelovedH3039 hath a vineyardH3754 in a very fruitfulH1121+H8081 hillH7161: {a very…: Heb. the horn of the son of oil}
And he fencedH5823 it, and gathered out the stonesH5619 thereof, and plantedH5193 it with the choicest vineH8321, and builtH1129 a towerH4026 in the midstH8432 of it, and also madeH2672 a winepressH3342 therein: and he lookedH6960 that it should bring forthH6213 grapesH6025, and it brought forthH6213 wild grapesH891. {fenced: or, made a wall about} {made: Heb. hewed}
And now, O inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and menH376 of JudahH3063, judgeH8199, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyardH3754.
What could have been doneH6213 more to my vineyardH3754, that I have not doneH6213 in it? whereforeH4069, when I lookedH6960 that it should bring forthH6213 grapesH6025, brought it forthH6213 wild grapesH891?
And now go to; I will tellH3045 you what I will doH6213 to my vineyardH3754: I will take awayH5493 the hedgeH4881 thereof, and it shall be eaten upH1197; and break downH6555 the wallH1447 thereof, and it shall be trodden downH4823: {trodden…: Heb. for a treading}
And I will layH7896 it wasteH1326: it shall not be prunedH2168, nor diggedH5737; but there shall come upH5927 briersH8068 and thornsH7898: I will also commandH6680 the cloudsH5645 that they rainH4305 no rainH4306 upon it.
For the vineyardH3754 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and the menH376 of JudahH3063 his pleasantH8191 plantH5194: and he lookedH6960 for judgmentH4941, but behold oppressionH4939; for righteousnessH6666, but behold a cryH6818. {his…: Heb. plant of his pleasures} {oppression: Heb. a scab}
WoeH1945 unto them that joinH5060 houseH1004 to houseH1004, that layH7126 fieldH7704 to fieldH7704, till there be noH657 placeH4725, that they may be placedH3427 alone in the midstH7130 of the earthH776! {they: Heb. ye}
In mine earsH241 said the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, Of a truthH3808 manyH7227 housesH1004 shall be desolateH8047, even greatH1419 and fairH2896, without inhabitantH3427. {In…: or, This is in mine ears, saith the LORD, etc} {Of a…: Heb. If not, etc}
YeaH3588, tenH6235 acresH6776 of vineyardH3754 shall yieldH6213 oneH259 bathH1324, and the seedH2233 of an homerH2563 shall yieldH6213 an ephahH374.
WoeH1945 unto them that rise up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, that they may followH7291 strong drinkH7941; that continueH309 until nightH5399, till wineH3196 inflameH1814 them! {inflame: of, pursue}
And the harpH3658, and the violH5035, the tabretH8596, and pipeH2485, and wineH3196, are in their feastsH4960: but they regardH5027 not the workH6467 of the LORDH3068, neither considerH7200 the operationH4639 of his handsH3027.
Therefore my peopleH5971 are gone into captivityH1540, because they have no knowledgeH1847: and their honourableH3519 menH4962 are famishedH7458, and their multitudeH1995 dried upH6704 with thirstH6772. {honourable…: Heb. glory are men of famine}
Therefore hellH7585 hath enlargedH7337 herselfH5315, and openedH6473 her mouthH6310 without measureH2706: and their gloryH1926, and their multitudeH1995, and their pompH7588, and he that rejoicethH5938, shall descendH3381 into it.
And the mean manH120 shall be brought downH7817, and the mighty manH376 shall be humbledH8213, and the eyesH5869 of the loftyH1364 shall be humbledH8213:
But the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 shall be exaltedH1361 in judgmentH4941, and GodH410 that is holyH6918 shall be sanctifiedH6942 in righteousnessH6666. {God…: or, the holy God: Heb. the God the holy}
Then shall the lambsH3532 feedH7462 after their mannerH1699, and the waste placesH2723 of the fat onesH4220 shall strangersH1481 eatH398.
WoeH1945 unto them that drawH4900 iniquityH5771 with cordsH2256 of vanityH7723, and sinH2403 as it were with a cartH5699 ropeH5688:
That sayH559, Let him make speedH4116, and hastenH2363 his workH4639, that we may seeH7200 it: and let the counselH6098 of the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478 draw nighH7126 and comeH935, that we may knowH3045 it!
WoeH1945 unto them that callH559 evilH7451 goodH2896, and goodH2896 evilH7451; that putH7760 darknessH2822 for lightH216, and lightH216 for darknessH2822; that putH7760 bitterH4751 for sweetH4966, and sweetH4966 for bitterH4751! {call…: Heb. say concerning evil, It is good, etc}
WoeH1945 unto them that are wiseH2450 in their own eyesH5869, and prudentH995 in their own sightH6440! {in their own sight: Heb. before their face}
WoeH1945 unto them that are mightyH1368 to drinkH8354 wineH3196, and menH582 of strengthH2428 to mingleH4537 strong drinkH7941:
Which justifyH6663 the wickedH7563 forH6118 rewardH7810, and take awayH5493 the righteousnessH6666 of the righteousH6662 from him!
Therefore as the fireH784 devourethH398 the stubbleH7179, and the flameH3956+H3852 consumethH7503 the chaffH2842, so their rootH8328 shall be as rottennessH4716, and their blossomH6525 shall go upH5927 as dustH80: because they have cast awayH3988 the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and despisedH5006 the wordH565 of the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478. {fire: Heb. tongue of fire}
Therefore is the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 kindledH2734 against his peopleH5971, and he hath stretched forthH5186 his handH3027 against them, and hath smittenH5221 them: and the hillsH2022 did trembleH7264, and their carcasesH5038 were tornH5478 in the midstH7130 of the streetsH2351. For all this his angerH639 is not turned awayH7725, but his handH3027 is stretched outH5186 still. {torn: or, as dung}
And he will lift upH5375 an ensignH5251 to the nationsH1471 from farH7350, and will hissH8319 unto them from the endH7097 of the earthH776: and, behold, they shall comeH935 with speedH4120 swiftlyH7031:
None shall be wearyH5889 nor stumbleH3782 among them; none shall slumberH5123 nor sleepH3462; neither shall the girdleH232 of their loinsH2504 be loosedH6605, nor the latchetH8288 of their shoesH5275 be brokenH5423:
Whose arrowsH2671 are sharpH8150, and all their bowsH7198 bentH1869, their horses'H5483 hoofsH6541 shall be countedH2803 like flintH6862, and their wheelsH1534 like a whirlwindH5492:
Their roaringH7581 shall be like a lionH3833, they shall roarH7580+H7580 like young lionsH3715: yea, they shall roarH5098, and lay holdH270 of the preyH2964, and shall carry it away safeH6403, and none shall deliverH5337 it.
And in that dayH3117 they shall roarH5098 against them like the roaringH5100 of the seaH3220: and if one lookH5027 unto the landH776, behold darknessH2822 and sorrowH6862, and the lightH216 is darkenedH2821 in the heavensH6183 thereof. {sorrow: or, distress} {and the light…: or, when it is light, it shall be dark in the destructions thereof}

Thou hast broughtH5265 a vineH1612 out of EgyptH4714: thou hast cast outH1644 the heathenH1471, and plantedH5193 it.
Thou preparedstH6437 room beforeH6440 it, and didst cause it to take deepH8328 rootH8327, and it filledH4390 the landH776.
The hillsH2022 were coveredH3680 with the shadowH6738 of it, and the boughsH6057 thereof were like the goodlyH410 cedarsH730. {goodly…: Heb. cedars of God}

From the soleH3709 of the footH7272 even unto the headH7218 there is no soundnessH4974 in it; but woundsH6482, and bruisesH2250, and putrifyingH2961 soresH4347: they have not been closedH2115, neither bound upH2280, neither mollifiedH7401 with ointmentH8081. {ointment: or, oil}
And he saidH559, WhatH4100 hast thou doneH6213? the voiceH6963 of thy brother'sH251 bloodH1818 criethH6817 unto me from the groundH127. {blood: Heb. bloods}
And the vineyardH3657+H3661 which thy right handH3225 hath plantedH5193, and the branchH1121 that thou madest strongH553 for thyself.
The LORDH3068 taketh pleasureH7521 in them that fearH3373 him, in those that hopeH3176 in his mercyH2617.
Is not this the fastH6685 that I have chosenH977? to looseH6605 the bandsH2784 of wickednessH7562, to undoH5425 the heavyH4133 burdensH92, and to let the oppressedH7533 goH7971 freeH2670, and that ye breakH5423 every yokeH4133? {the heavy…: Heb. the bundles of the yoke} {oppressed: Heb. broken}
Is it not to dealH6536 thy breadH3899 to the hungryH7457, and that thou bringH935 the poorH6041 that are cast outH4788 to thy houseH1004? when thou seestH7200 the nakedH6174, that thou coverH3680 him; and that thou hideH5956 not thyself from thine own fleshH1320? {cast…: or, afflicted}
Then shall thy lightH216 break forthH1234 as the morningH7837, and thine healthH724 shall spring forthH6779 speedilyH4120: and thy righteousnessH6664 shall goH1980 beforeH6440 thee; the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 shall be thy rerewardH622. {be…: Heb. gather thee up}
Therefore the LordH136 will smite with a scabH5596 the crown of the headH6936 of the daughtersH1323 of ZionH6726, and the LORDH3068 will discoverH6168 their secret partsH6596. {discover: Heb. make naked}
And it came to pass in processH1992+H7227 of timeH3117, that the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 diedH4191: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 sighedH584 by reason ofH4480 the bondageH5656, and they criedH2199, and their cryH7775 came upH5927 unto GodH430 by reason of the bondageH5656.
ManyH7227 pastorsH7462 have destroyedH7843 my vineyardH3754, they have troddenH947 my portionH2513 under footH947, they have madeH5414 my pleasantH2532 portionH2513 a desolateH8077 wildernessH4057. {pleasant…: Heb. portion of desire}

Ye shall not afflictH6031 any widowH490, or fatherless childH3490.
IfH518 thou afflictH6031 them in any wiseH6031, and they cryH6817 at allH6817 unto me, I will surelyH8085 hearH8085 their cryH6818;
And my wrathH639 shall wax hotH2734, and I will killH2026 you with the swordH2719; and your wivesH802 shall be widowsH490, and your childrenH1121 fatherlessH3490.
If thou lendH3867 moneyH3701 to any of my peopleH5971 that is poorH6041 by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurerH5383, neither shalt thou layH7760 upon him usuryH5392.
If thou at allH2254 takeH2254 thy neighbour'sH7453 raimentH8008 to pledgeH2254, thou shalt deliverH7725 it unto him byH5704 that the sunH8121 goeth downH935:
For that is his coveringH3682 only, it is his raimentH8071 for his skinH5785: wherein shall he sleepH7901? and it shall come to pass, when he criethH6817 unto me, that I will hearH8085; for I am graciousH2587.
And GodH430 heardH8085 their groaningH5009, and GodH430 rememberedH2142 his covenantH1285 with AbrahamH85, with IsaacH3327, and with JacobH3290.
He hath shewedH5046 thee, O manH120, what is goodH2896; and what doth the LORDH3068 requireH1875 of thee, but to doH6213 justlyH4941, and to loveH160 mercyH2617, and to walkH3212 humblyH6800 with thy GodH430? {walk…: Heb. humble thyself to walk}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, I have surelyH7200 seenH7200 the afflictionH6040 of my peopleH5971 which are in EgyptH4714, and have heardH8085 their cryH6818 by reasonH6440 of their taskmastersH5065; for I knowH3045 their sorrowsH4341;
The LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in the midstH7130 of thee is mightyH1368; he will saveH3467, he will rejoiceH7797 over thee with joyH8057; he will restH2790 in his loveH160, he will joyH1523 over thee with singingH7440. {rest: Heb. be silent}
Thus speakethH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, sayingH559, ExecuteH8199 trueH571 judgmentH4941, and shewH6213 mercyH2617 and compassionsH7356 every manH376 to his brotherH251: {Execute…: Heb. Judge judgment of truth}
And oppressH6231 not the widowH490, nor the fatherlessH3490, the strangerH1616, nor the poorH6041; and let none of you imagineH2803 evilH7451 againstH376 his brotherH251 in your heartH3824.
But they refusedH3985 to hearkenH7181, and pulled awayH5414+H5637 the shoulderH3802, and stoppedH3513 their earsH241, that they should not hearH8085. {pulled…: Heb. they gave a backsliding shoulder} {stopped: Heb. made heavy}

Therefore it is come to pass, that as he criedH7121, and they would not hearH8085; so they criedH7121, and I would not hearH8085, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635:
But I scattered them with a whirlwindH5590 among all the nationsH1471 whom they knewH3045 not. Thus the landH776 was desolateH8074 afterH310 them, that no man passed throughH5674 nor returnedH7725: for they laidH7760 the pleasantH2532 landH776 desolateH8047. {pleasant…: Heb. land of desire}
Thou shalt neither vexH3238 a strangerH1616, nor oppressH3905 him: for ye were strangersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
Ye shall not afflictH6031 any widowH490, or fatherless childH3490.
IfH518 thou afflictH6031 them in any wiseH6031, and they cryH6817 at allH6817 unto me, I will surelyH8085 hearH8085 their cryH6818;
And my wrathH639 shall wax hotH2734, and I will killH2026 you with the swordH2719; and your wivesH802 shall be widowsH490, and your childrenH1121 fatherlessH3490.
Bring forthG4160 thereforeG3767 fruitsG2590 meetG514 for repentanceG3341: {meet…: or, answerable to amendment of life}
AndG2532 thinkG1380 notG3361 to sayG3004 withinG1722 yourselvesG1438, We haveG2192 AbrahamG11 to our fatherG3962: forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, thatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1410 ofG1537 theseG5130 stonesG3037 to raise upG1453 childrenG5043 unto AbrahamG11.
AndG1161 nowG2235 alsoG2532 the axeG513 is laidG2749 untoG4314 the rootG4491 of the treesG1186: thereforeG3767 everyG3956 treeG1186 which bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442.
For that is his coveringH3682 only, it is his raimentH8071 for his skinH5785: wherein shall he sleepH7901? and it shall come to pass, when he criethH6817 unto me, that I will hearH8085; for I am graciousH2587.
WoeG3759 unto youG5213, scribesG1122 andG2532 PhariseesG5330, hypocritesG5273! forG3754 ye pay titheG586 of mintG2238 andG2532 aniseG432 andG2532 cumminG2951, andG2532 have omittedG863 the weightierG926 matters of the lawG3551, judgmentG2920+G2532, mercyG1656, andG2532 faithG4102: theseG5023 ought yeG1163 to have doneG4160, and notG3361 to leaveG863 the otherG2548 undoneG863. {anise: Gr. dill}
BewareH8104 that there be not a thoughtH1697 in thy wickedH1100 heartH3824, sayingH559, The seventhH7651 yearH8141, the yearH8141 of releaseH8059, is at handH7126; and thine eyeH5869 be evilH7489 against thy poorH34 brotherH251, and thou givestH5414 him nought; and he cryH7121 unto the LORDH3068 against thee, and it be sinH2399 unto thee. {thought: Heb. word} {wicked: Heb. Belial}
EveryG3956 branchG2814 inG1722 meG1698 thatG846 bearethG5342 notG3361 fruitG2590 he taketh awayG142: andG2532 everyG3956 branch that bearethG5342 fruitG2590, he purgethG2508 itG846, thatG2443 it may bring forthG5342 moreG4119 fruitG2590.
And there was a greatH1419 cryH6818 of the peopleH5971 and of their wivesH802 against their brethrenH251 the JewsH3064.
For there wereH3426 that saidH559, We, our sonsH1121, and our daughtersH1323, are manyH7227: therefore we take upH3947 cornH1715 for them, that we may eatH398, and liveH2421.
Some also there wereH3426 that saidH559, We have mortgagedH6148 our landsH7704, vineyardsH3754, and housesH1004, that we might buyH3947 cornH1715, because of the dearthH7458.
There wereH3426 also that saidH559, We have borrowedH3867 moneyH3701 for the king'sH4428 tributeH4060, and that upon our landsH7704 and vineyardsH3754.
Yet now our fleshH1320 is as the fleshH1320 of our brethrenH251, our childrenH1121 as their childrenH1121: and, lo, we bring into bondageH3533 our sonsH1121 and our daughtersH1323 to be servantsH5650, and some of our daughtersH1323 areH3426 brought unto bondageH3533 already: neither is it in our powerH410+H3027 to redeem them; for other menH312 have our landsH7704 and vineyardsH3754.
NayG235, yeG5210 do wrongG91, andG2532 defraudG650, andG2532 thatG5023 your brethrenG80.
Know yeG1492 notG3756 thatG3754 the unrighteousG94 shallG2816 notG3756 inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316? BeG4105 notG3361 deceivedG4105: neitherG3777 fornicatorsG4205, norG3777 idolatersG1496, norG3777 adulterersG3432, norG3777 effeminateG3120, norG3777 abusers of themselves with mankindG733,
NorG3777 thievesG2812, norG3777 covetousG4123, norG3777 drunkardsG3183, norG3756 revilersG3060, norG3756 extortionersG727, shall inheritG3756+G2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 suchG5023 wereG2258 some of youG5100: butG235 ye are washedG628, butG235 ye are sanctifiedG37, butG235 ye are justifiedG1344 inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, andG2532 byG1722 the SpiritG4151 of ourG2257 GodG2316.
If my landH127 cryH2199 against me, or that the furrowsH8525 likewiseH3162 thereof complainH1058; {complain: Heb. weep}
Little childrenG5040, letG4105 no manG3367 deceiveG4105 youG5209: he that doethG4160 righteousnessG1343 isG2076 righteousG1342, even asG2531 heG1565 isG2076 righteousG1342.
If I have eatenH398 the fruitsH3581 thereof without moneyH3701, or have caused the ownersH1167 thereof to loseH5301 their lifeH5315: {fruits: Heb. strength} {the owners…: Heb. the soul of the owners thereof to expire, or, breathe out}
He that committethG4160 sinG266 isG2076 ofG1537 the devilG1228; forG3754 the devilG1228 sinnethG264 fromG575 the beginningG746. ForG1519 this purposeG5124 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 was manifestedG5319, thatG2443 he might destroyG3089 the worksG2041 of the devilG1228.
So that they cause the cryH6818 of the poorH1800 to comeH935 unto him, and he hearethH8085 the cryH6818 of the afflictedH6041.
Whoso stoppethH331 his earsH241 at the cryH2201 of the poorH1800, he also shall cryH7121 himself, but shall not be heardH6030.
