Israel sent out its branches to the [Mediterranean] Sea,
And its branches to the [Euphrates] River.

Beside them the birds of the heavens have their nests;
They lift up their voices and sing among the branches.

You uprooted a vine (Israel) from Egypt;
You drove out the [Canaanite] nations and planted the vine [in Canaan].

Turn again [in favor to us], O God of hosts;
Look down from heaven and see, and take care of this vine,

Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine
Within the innermost part of your house;
Your children will be like olive plants
Around your table.
