Thou broughtest a vine out of Egypt: thou didst drive out the nations, and plantedst it.

Thou preparedst [room] before it, and it took deep root, and filled the land.

12 לָ֭מָּה פָּרַ֣צְתָּ גְדֵרֶ֑יהָ וְ֝אָר֗וּהָ כָּל־עֹ֥בְרֵי דָֽרֶךְ׃

Why hast thou broken down her fences, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?

13 יְכַרְסְמֶ֣נָּֽה חֲזִ֣יר מִיָּ֑עַר וְזִ֖יז שָׂדַ֣י יִרְעֶֽנָּה׃

The boar out of the wood doth ravage it, and the wild beasts of the field feed on it.

14 אֱלֹהִ֣ים צְבָאֹות֮ שֽׁ֫וּב־נָ֥א הַבֵּ֣ט מִשָּׁמַ֣יִם וּרְאֵ֑ה וּ֝פְקֹ֗ד גֶּ֣פֶן זֹֽאת׃

Turn again, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine,

And the stock which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself.
