I am not angry with my vineyard.
    I wish thorns and bushes would come up in it.
Then I would march out against them in battle.
    I would set all of them on fire.
So the enemies of my people should come to me for safety.
    They should make peace with me.
I will say it again.
    They should make peace with me.”

In days to come, Jacob’s people will put down roots like a vine.
    Israel will bud and bloom.
    They will fill the whole world with fruit.
