That I have not done in ait?
Why then, when I expected it to bring forth good grapes,
Did it bring forth wild grapes?
aI will take away its hedge, and it shall be burned;
And break down its wall, and it shall be trampled down.
It shall not be pruned or1 dug,
But there shall come up briers and bthorns.
I will also command the clouds
That they rain no rain on it.”
And the men of Judah are His pleasant plant.
He looked for justice, but behold, oppression;
For righteousness, but behold,1 a cry for help.
Impending Judgment on Excesses
They add field to field,
Till there is no place
Where they may dwell alone in the midst of the land!
“Truly, many houses shall be desolate,
Great and beautiful ones, without inhabitant.

There shall come up briers and thorns "The thorn shall spring up in it" - One MS. has beshamir . The true reading seems to be bo shamir , which is confirmed by the Septuagint, Syriac, and Vulgate.
