1 And the word of the LORD [Yahweh] came to me, saying,
2 Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree, [or than] a branch which is among the trees of the forest?
3 Will wood be taken of it to do any work? or will [men] take a pin of it to hang any vessel on it?
4 Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire devours both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned. Is it meet for [any] work?
5 Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work: how much less will it be meet yet for [any] work, when the fire has devoured it, and it is burned?
6 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
7 And I will set my face against them; they will go out from [one] fire, and [another] fire will devour them; and you will know that I [am] the LORD [Yahweh], when I set my face against them.
8 And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass, says the Lord GOD.
