Isaiah 5:4-6
Good News Translation
4 Is there anything I failed to do for it? Then why did it produce sour grapes and not the good grapes I expected?
5 “Here is what I am going to do to my vineyard: I will take away the hedge around it, break down the wall that protects it, and let wild animals eat it and trample it down. 6 I will let it be overgrown with weeds. I will not trim the vines or hoe the ground; instead, I will let briers and thorns cover it. I will even forbid the clouds to let rain fall on it.”

Isaiah 5:4-6
New International Version
4 What more could have been done for my vineyard
than I have done for it?(A)
When I looked for good grapes,
why did it yield only bad?(B)
5 Now I will tell you
what I am going to do to my vineyard:
I will take away its hedge,
and it will be destroyed;(C)
I will break down its wall,(D)
and it will be trampled.(E)
6 I will make it a wasteland,(F)
neither pruned nor cultivated,
and briers and thorns(G) will grow there.
I will command the clouds
not to rain(H) on it.”
