“Son of man, how is the wood of the vine better than any wood of a branch which is among the trees of the forest?

As for you, son of man, groan with breaking heart and bitter grief, groan in their sight.

“Also they will make themselves bald for you
And gird themselves with sackcloth;
And they will weep for you in bitterness of soul
With bitter mourning.

I will multiply on you man and beast; and they will increase and be fruitful; and I will cause you to be inhabited as you were formerly and will treat you better than at the first. Thus you will know that I am the Lord.
