Pass your hand again like a grape gatherer
Over the branches.”

And my fig tree splinters.
It has stripped them bare and cast them away;
Their branches have become white.

A completely faithful seed.
How then have you turned yourself before Me
Into the degenerate shoots of a foreign vine?

And from the fields of Gomorrah;
Their grapes are grapes of poison,
Their clusters, bitter.

And his donkey’s colt to the choice vine;
He washes his garments in wine,
And his robes in the blood of grapes.

Four or five on the branches of a fruitful tree,

Or like branches which they abandoned before the sons of Israel;

And the flower becomes a ripening grape,
Then He will cut off the sprigs with pruning knives
And remove and cut away the spreading branches.

With the noise of a great tumult

Because of many waters as it spread them out.

‘All the birds of the heavens nested in its boughs,
And under its branches all the beasts of the field gave birth,
And all great nations lived under its shade.

‘So it was beautiful in its greatness, in the length of its branches;
For its roots extended to many waters.

The cypresses could not compare with its boughs,
And the plane trees could not match its branches.
No tree in God’s garden could compare with it in its beauty.

‘I made it beautiful with the multitude of its branches,
And all the trees of Eden, which were in the garden of God, were jealous of it.

Alien tyrants of the nations have cut it down and left it; on the mountains and in all the valleys its branches have fallen and its boughs have been broken in all the ravines of the land. And all the peoples of the earth have gone down from its shade and left it.

On its ruin all the birds of the heavens will dwell, and all the beasts of the field will be on its fallen branches

But you, O mountains of Israel, you will put forth your branches and bear your fruit for My people Israel; for they will soon come.

And in it was food for all.

And the birds of the sky dwelt in its branches,
And all living creatures fed themselves from it.

To see the blossoms of the valley,
To see whether the vine had budded
Or the pomegranates had bloomed.

And its blossoms have opened,
And whether the pomegranates have bloomed.
There I will give you my love.

And planted it with the choicest vine.

And also hewed out a wine vat in it;
Then He expected it to produce good grapes,
But it produced only worthless ones.

Therefore I will weep bitterly for Jazer, for the vine of Sibmah;
I will drench you with my tears, O Heshbon and Elealeh;
For the shouting over your summer fruits and your harvest has fallen away.

For you have forgotten the God of your salvation
And have not remembered the rock of your refuge.
Therefore you plant delightful plants
And set them with vine slips of a strange god.

The new wine mourns,
The vine decays,
All the merry-hearted sigh.

They reached to the sea of Jazer;
Upon your summer fruits and your grape harvest
The destroyer has fallen.

The more altars he made;
The richer his land,
The better he made the sacred pillars.

Those who live in his shadow
Will again raise grain,
And they will blossom like the vine.

And the fig tree fails;
The pomegranate, the palm also, and the apple tree,
All the trees of the field dry up.
Indeed, rejoicing dries up
From the sons of men.

Do not fear, beasts of the field,
For the pastures of the wilderness have turned green,
For the tree has borne its fruit,
The fig tree and the vine have yielded in full.

Each of them will sit under his vine
And under his fig tree,
With no one to make them afraid,
For the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken.
