| 15:1 |
And the word of the LORD came to me:
|
| 15:2 |
'Son of man, how does the wood of the vine surpass any wood, the vine branch which is among the trees of the forest?
|
| 15:3 |
Is wood taken from it to make anything? Do men take a peg from it to hang any vessel on?
|
| 15:4 |
Lo, it is given to the fire for fuel;when the fire has consumed both ends of it, and the middle of it is charred, is it useful for anything?
|
| 15:5 |
Behold, when it was whole, it was used for nothing;how much less, when the fire has consumed it and it is charred, can it ever be used for anything!
|
| 15:6 |
Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Like the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give up the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
|
| 15:7 |
And I will set my face against them;though they escape from the fire, the fire shall yet consume them;and you will know that I am the LORD, when I set my face against them.
|
| 15:8 |
And I will make the land desolate, because they have acted faithlessly, says the Lord GOD.'
