Isaiah 5:3-5

New International Reader's Version

³ So the Lord said, “People of Jerusalem and Judah,
    you be the judge between me and my vineyard.
⁴ What more could I have done for my vineyard?
    I did everything I could.
I kept looking for a crop of good grapes.
    So why did it produce only bad ones?
⁵ Now I will tell you
    what I am going to do to my vineyard.
I will take away its fence.
    And the vineyard will be destroyed.
I will break down its wall.
    And people will walk all over my vineyard.
