Isaiah 28:4
Christian Standard Bible
4 The fading flower of his beautiful splendor,
which is on the summit above the rich valley,
will be like a ripe fig before the summer harvest.(A)
Whoever sees it will swallow it
while it is still in his hand.

Ephraim Bereaved of Offspring
10 I discovered Israel
like grapes in the wilderness.(A)
I saw your ancestors
like the first fruit of the fig tree in its first season.(B)
But they went to Baal-peor,(C)
consecrated themselves to Shame,[a](D)
and became abhorrent,(E)
like the thing they loved.

after the gleaning of the grape harvest(A)—
