Isaiah 5:1-6, 24-25

Isaiah 5:1-6 CSB

I will sing about the one I love, a song about my loved one’s vineyard:  The one I love had a vineyard on a very fertile hill. He broke up the soil, cleared it of stones, and planted it with the finest vines.  He built a tower in the middle of it and even dug out a winepress there. He expected  it to yield good grapes, but it yielded worthless grapes.  So now, residents of Jerusalem and men of Judah, please judge between me and my vineyard. What more could I have done for my vineyard than I did?  Why, when I expected a yield of good grapes, did it yield worthless grapes? Now I will tell you what I am about to do to my vineyard: I will remove its hedge,  and it will be consumed; I will tear down its wall,  and it will be trampled. I will make it a wasteland.  It will not be pruned or weeded; thorns and briers will grow up.  I will also give orders to the clouds that rain should not fall on it.

Isaiah 5:24-25 CSB

Therefore, as a tongue of fire consumes straw and as dry grass shrivels in the flame, so their roots will become like something rotten and their blossoms will blow away like dust, for they have rejected  the instruction of the  LORD of Armies, and they have despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.  Therefore the LORD’s anger burned  against his people. He raised his hand against them and struck them; the mountains quaked,  and their corpses were like garbage in the streets. In all this, his anger has not turned away, and his hand is still raised to strike.
