Isaiah 5:4-6
Christian Standard Bible Anglicised
4 What more could I have done for my vineyard
than I did?(A)
Why, when I expected a yield of good grapes,
did it yield worthless grapes?
5 Now I will tell you
what I am about to do to my vineyard:
I will remove its hedge,(B)
and it will be consumed;
I will tear down its wall,(C)
and it will be trampled.
6 I will make it a wasteland.(D)
It will not be pruned or weeded;
thorns and briars will grow up.(E)
I will also give orders to the clouds
that rain should not fall on it.
Isaiah 5:4-6
New Catholic Bible
4 What more could I have done for my vineyard
that I did not do?
When I expected it to yield choice grapes,
why did it bring forth wild grapes?
5 Now listen to me as I tell you
what I am planning to do to my vineyard.
I will take away its hedge
and use it for grazing.
I will knock down its wall
and let it be trampled upon.
6 I will let it go to waste;
it will be neither pruned nor hoed,
but left overgrown with briars and thorns.
I will also command the clouds
not to allow any rain to fall upon it.
