every place where there were a thousand vines,
worth a thousand pieces of silver,
will become thorns and briers.(A)

because the whole land will be thorns and briers.

that were once tilled with a hoe,
for fear of the thorns and briers.
Those hills will be places for oxen to graze
and for sheep to trample.
