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.
That they may1 follow intoxicating drink;
Who continue until night, till wine inflames them!
The tambourine and flute,
And wine are in their feasts;
But bthey do not regard the work of the Lord,
Nor consider the operation of His hands.
