Isaiah 5:3-5
New English Translation
Isaiah 5:3-5
New English Translation
3 So now, residents of Jerusalem,
people[a] of Judah,
you decide between me and my vineyard!
4 What more can I do for my vineyard
beyond what I have already done?
When I waited for it to produce edible grapes,
why did it produce sour ones instead?
5 Now I will inform you
what I am about to do to my vineyard:
I will remove its hedge and turn it into pasture,[b]
I will break its wall and allow animals to graze there.[c]
