YECHEZCHIAL
(Book of Ezekiel)
Chapter 15

Yechezchial 14


1
And the word of HaShem came unto me, saying:
2
'Son of man, what is the vine-tree more than any tree, the vine branch which grew up among the trees of the forest?
3
Shall wood be taken thereof to make any work? or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?
4
Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire hath devoured both the ends of it, and the midst of it is singed; is it profitable for any work?
5
Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work; how much less, when the fire hath devoured it, and it is singed, shall it yet be meet for any work?
6
Therefore thus saith the L-rd GOD: As the vine-tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so do I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
7
And I will set My face against them; out of the fire are they come forth, and the fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I am HaShem, when I set My face against them.
8
And I will make the land desolate, because they have acted treacherously, saith the L-rd GOD.'
