Psalm 80:9-20
9 You have transferred a vineyard from Egypt. You have cast out the Gentiles, and planted it. 10 You were the leader of the journey in its sight. You planted its roots, and it filled the earth. 11 Its shadow covered the hills, and its branches covered the cedars of God. 12 It extended its new branches even to the sea, and its new seedlings even to the river. 13 So then, why have you destroyed its walls, so that all those who pass by the way gather its grapes? 14 The wild boar of the forest has trampled it, and a single wild beast has laid waste to it. 15 Turn back, O God of hosts. Look down from heaven, and see, and visit this vineyard; 16 and complete what your right hand has planted, and look upon the son of man, whom you have confirmed for yourself. 17 Whatever has been set on fire and dug under will perish at the rebuke of your countenance. 18 Let your hand be over the man on your right, and over the son of man, whom you have confirmed for yourself. 19 For we do not depart from you, and you will revive us. And we will invoke your name. 20 O Lord, God of hosts, convert us. And reveal your face, and we will be saved. Isaiah 5:1-7 1 I will sing to my beloved the canticle of my paternal cousin, about his vineyard. A vineyard was made for my beloved, at the horn in the son of oil. 2 And he fenced it in, and he picked the stones out of it, and he planted it with the best vines, and he built a tower in the middle of it, and he set up a winepress within it. And he expected it to produce grapes, but it produced wild vines. 3 Now then, inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah: judge between me and my vineyard. 4 What more should I have done for my vineyard that I did not do for it? Should I not have expected it to produce grapes, though it produced wild vines? 5 And now, I will reveal to you what I will do to my vineyard. I will take away its fence, and it will be plundered. I will pull down its wall, and it will be trampled. 6 And I will make it desolate. It will not be pruned, and it will not be dug. And briers and thorns will rise up. And I will command the clouds not to rain upon it. 7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel. And the man of Judah is his delightful seedling. And I expected that he would do judgment, and behold iniquity, and that he would do justice, and behold an outcry.
