Israel Will Pay for Sin

10 Israel is like a vine
    that produced plenty of fruit.
As the people became richer,
    they built more altars for idols.
As their land became better,
    they put up better stone pillars to honor false gods.
Their heart was false.
    Now they must pay for their guilt.
The Lord will break down their altars.
    He will destroy their holy stone pillars.

Then the Israelites will say, “We have no king,
    because we didn’t honor the Lord.
But even if we had one,
    he couldn’t do anything for us.”
