1And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

1And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

2Son of man, what is the wood of the vine more than any wood, the vine-branch, which is among the trees of the forest?

2Son of man, what shall be made of the wood of the vine, out of all the trees of the woods that are among the trees of the forests?

3Shall wood be taken thereof to do any work? or will [men] take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?

3Shall wood be taken of it, to do any work, or shall a pin be made of it for any vessel to hang thereon?

4Behold, it is given to the fire for fuel: the fire consumeth both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned; is it fit for [any] work?

4Behold it is cast into the fire for fuel: the fire hath consumed both ends thereof, and the midst thereof is reduced to ashes: shall it be useful for any work?

5Behold, when it was whole, it was used for no work; how much less when the fire hath consumed it, and it is burned, should it yet be used for any work?

5Even when it was whole it was not fit for work: how much less, when the fire hath devoured and consumed it, shall any work be made of it?

6Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: As the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

6Therefore thus saith the Lord God: As the vine tree among the trees of the forests which I have given to the fire to be consumed, so will I deliver up the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

7And I will set my face against them: they shall go forth from [one] fire, and [another] fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah when I set my face against them.

7And I will set my face against them: they shall go out from fire, and fire shall consume them: and you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have set my face against them.

8And I will make the land a desolation, because they have wrought unfaithfulness, saith the Lord Jehovah.

8And I shall have made their land a wilderness, and desolate, because they have been transgressors, saith the Lord God.
