Isaiah 5:6-8
New Century Version
6 I will ruin my field.
It will not be trimmed or hoed,
and weeds and thorns will grow there.
I will command the clouds
not to rain on it.”
7 The vineyard belonging to the Lord All-Powerful
is the nation of Israel;
the garden that he loves
is the people of Judah.
He looked for justice, but there was only killing.
He hoped for right living, but there were only cries of pain.
8 How terrible it will be for you who add more houses to your houses
and more fields to your fields
until there is no room left for other people.
Then you are left alone in the land.
Isaiah 5:6-8
New International Version
6 I will make it a wasteland,(A)
neither pruned nor cultivated,
and briers and thorns(B) will grow there.
I will command the clouds
not to rain(C) on it.”
7 The vineyard(D) of the Lord Almighty
is the nation of Israel,
and the people of Judah
are the vines he delighted in.
And he looked for justice,(E) but saw bloodshed;
for righteousness,(F) but heard cries of distress.(G)
