For¹ the vineyardª of the LORDª of hostsª [is] the houseª of Israel,ª and the menª of Judahª his pleasantª plant:ª and he lookedª° for judgment,ª but behold¹ oppression;ª for righteousness,ª but behold¹ a cry.ª" {Isa 5:1-7} + "And the wordª of the LORDª came¹ unto¹ me, saying,ª° ... Behold,¹ when it was¹ whole,ª it was meetª° for no¹ work:ª how much less¹ shall it be meetª° yet¹ for [any] work,ª when¹ the fireª hath devouredª° it, and it is burned?ª°" {Ezk 15:1-5} + "For¹ the LORDª hath turned awayª°¹ the excellencyª of Jacob,ª as the excellencyª of Israel:ª for¹ the emptiersª° have emptied¹ them out,²° and marredª° their vine branches.ª" {Nah 2:2} + "Iª amª° the¹ trueª vine,ª andª myª Fatherª isª° the¹ husbandman.ª ... If²° a man² abide²° notª¹¹ inª me,ª he is castª° forthª asª a branch,ª andª is withered;ª° andª men gatherª° them,ª andª castª° [them] intoª the fire,ª andª they are burned.ª°" {Jhn 15:1-6} |
