< Isaiah 5 >
1 Let me sing please to beloved [one] my a song of beloved my of vineyard his a vineyard it belonged to beloved [one] my on a horn of a son of oil.
2 And he dug it and he cleared of stones it and he planted it a choice vine and he built a tower in [the] middle of it and also a wine-vat he dug out in it and he waited to produce grapes and it produced wild grapes.
3 And therefore O inhabitant[s] of Jerusalem and everyone of Judah judge please between me and between vineyard my.
4 What? [is] to do still for vineyard my and not I have done for it why? did I wait to produce grapes and did it produce wild grapes.
5 And therefore let me make know please you [that] which I [am] about to do to vineyard my I will remove hedge its and it will become grazing I will break down wall its and it will become a trampling place.
6 And I will make it a desolation not it will be pruned and not it will be hoed and it will grow up thorn[s] and bush[es] and to the clouds I will command from raining on it rain.
7 For [the] vineyard of Yahweh of hosts [is] [the] house of Israel and everyone of Judah [is] [the] plantation of delight his and he waited for justice and there! bloodshed for righteousness and there! an outcry.
8 Woe to! [those who] make touch a house a house a field on a field they bring near until there not [is] room and you are made to dwell to alone you in [the] midst of the land.
9 In ears my Yahweh of hosts if not houses many a waste they will become great [houses] and good [houses] from not inhabitant.
10 For ten acres of vineyard they will produce a bath one and seed of a homer it will produce an ephah.
11 Woe to! [those who] rise early in the morning strong drink they pursue [those who] delay in the twilight wine it inflames them.
12 And it will be harp and lyre tambourine and flute and wine feast their and [the] deed[s] of Yahweh not they pay attention to and [the] work of hands his not they see.
13 Therefore it will go into exile people my because not knowledge and honor its [will be] men of hunger and multitude its [will be] parched of thirst.
14 Therefore it will enlarge Sheol throat its and it will open wide mouth its to not limit and it will go down splendor its and multitude its and uproar its and [one] exulting in it. (Sheol )
15 And he has been humbled everyone and he has become low everyone and [the] eyes of proud [people] they will become low.
16 And he was exalted Yahweh of hosts by judgment and God holy [will] show himself holy by righteousness.
17 And they will graze lambs like own pasture their and [the] ruins of fatlings sojourners they will eat.
18 Woe to! [those who] draw along iniquity with [the] cords of emptiness and like [the] rope of cart sin.
19 Those [who] say let it hurry - let it make haste! work his so that we may see and it may draw near and let it come! [the] plan of [the] holy [one] of Israel so we may know.
20 Woe to! those [who] say of evil good and of good evil [those who] make darkness into light and light into darkness [those who] make bitter into sweet and sweet into bitter.
21 Woe to! [people] wise in own eyes their and before own faces their discerning [people].
22 Woe to! [men] mighty for drinking wine and people of ability for mixing strong drink.
23 [those who] justify a wicked [person] [the] consequence of A bribe and [the] righteousness of righteous [people] they take away from him.
24 Therefore as consumes stubble a tongue of fire and dry grass a flame it sinks down root their like rottenness it will be and blossom their like dust it will go up for they have rejected [the] law of Yahweh of hosts and [the] word of [the] holy [one] of Israel they have spurned.
25 There-fore it has burned [the] anger of Yahweh on people his and he has stretched out hand his on it and he has struck it and they have quaked the mountains and it was corpse their like offal in [the] middle of [the] streets for all this not it has turned away anger his and still hand his [is] stretched out.
26 And he will lift up a standard for the nations from a distance and he will whistle for it from [the] end of the earth and there! quickly swift it will come.
27 There not [is] a weary [one] and there not [is one who] stumbles among it not anyone will slumber and not anyone will sleep and not it has been opened [the] waistband of loins its and not it has been torn apart a thong of sandals its.
28 Which arrows its [are] sharpened and all bows its [are] bent [the] hooves of horses its like flint they are regarded and wheels its like storm-wind.
29 Roaring of it [is] like lion (it will roar *Q(K)*) like young lions so it may growl and it may seize prey so it may carry [it] off and there not [is] a deliverer.
30 And it may growl over it in the day that like [the] growling of [the] sea and someone will look to the land and there! darkness distress and light it has become dark by clouds its.
