⁸ You transplanted a vine^(A) from Egypt;
    you drove out^(B) the nations and planted^(C) it.

⁷ The vineyard^(A) of the Lord Almighty
    is the nation of Israel,
and the people of Judah
    are the vines he delighted in.
And he looked for justice,^(B) but saw bloodshed;
    for righteousness,^(C) but heard cries of distress.^(D)

²¹ I had planted^(A) you like a choice vine^(B)
    of sound and reliable stock.
How then did you turn against me
    into a corrupt,^(C) wild vine?
