¹ 耶和華的話臨到我說：

² 人子啊，葡萄樹比別樣樹有甚麼強處？葡萄枝比眾樹枝有甚麼好處？

³ 其上可以取木料做甚麼工用，可以取來做釘子掛甚麼器皿麼？

⁴ 看哪，已經拋在火中當作柴燒，火既燒了兩頭，中間也被燒了，還有益於工用麼？

⁵ 完全的時候尚且不合乎甚麼工用，何況被火燒壞，還能合乎甚麼工用麼？

⁶ 所以，主耶和華如此說：眾樹以內的葡萄樹，我怎樣使他在火中當柴，也必照樣待耶路撒冷的居民。

⁷ 我必向他們變臉；他們雖從火中出來，火卻要燒滅他們。我向他們變臉的時候，你們就知道我是耶和華。

⁸ 我必使地土荒涼，因為他們行事干犯我。這是主耶和華說的。

¹⁴ 他使你境內平安，用上好的麥子使你滿足。

¹² It will happen in that day, that Yahweh will thresh from the flowing stream of the Euphrates to the brook of Egypt; and you will be gathered one by one, children of Israel.

¹³ It will happen in that day that a great trumpet will be blown; and those who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and those who were outcasts in the land of Egypt, shall come; and they will worship Yahweh in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
