Isaiah 5:5-7
The Message
Isaiah 5:5-7
The Message
5-6 “Well now, let me tell you
what I’ll do to my vineyard:
I’ll tear down its fence
and let it go to ruin.
I’ll knock down the gate
and let it be trampled.
I’ll turn it into a patch of weeds, untended, uncared for—
thistles and thorns will take over.
I’ll give orders to the clouds:
‘Don’t rain on that vineyard, ever!’”
7 Do you get it? The vineyard of God-of-the-Angel-Armies
is the country of Israel.
All the men and women of Judah
are the garden he was so proud of.
He looked for a crop of justice
and saw them murdering each other.
He looked for a harvest of righteousness
and heard only the moans of victims.
Isaiah 5:5-7
New International Version

New International Version
5 Now I will tell you
what I am going to do to my vineyard:
I will take away its hedge,
and it will be destroyed;(A)
I will break down its wall,(B)
and it will be trampled.(C)
6 I will make it a wasteland,(D)
neither pruned nor cultivated,
and briers and thorns(E) will grow there.
I will command the clouds
not to rain(F) on it.”
