“What ^H4100 more ^H5750 was there to do ^H6213 for My vineyard ^H3754 [fn]that I have not done ^H6213 in it?

Why ^H4069, when I hoped ^H6960 for it to produce ^H6213 good grapes ^H6025 did it produce ^H6213 [fn]worthless ^H891 ones ^H891?

“Why ^H4069 was ^H369 there ^H369 no ^H369 man ^H376 when I came ^H935?

When I called ^H7121, why was ^H369 there ^H369 none ^H369 to answer ^H6030?

Is My hand ^H3027 so ^H4480 short ^H7114 that ^H4480 it cannot ^H4480 ransom ^H6304?

Or ^H518 have ^H369 I no ^H369 power ^H3581 to deliver ^H5337?

Behold ^H2005, I dry ^H2717 up ^H2717 the sea ^H3220 with My rebuke ^H1606;

I make ^H7760 the rivers ^H5104 a wilderness ^H4057;

Their fish ^H1710 stink ^H887 for lack ^H369 of water ^H4325

And die ^H4191 of thirst ^H6772.

Why ^H4069 is Your clothing ^H3830 red ^H122,

And Your garments ^H899 like the one who treads ^H1869 in the wine ^H1660 press ^H1660?

“Is Israel ^H3478 a slave ^H5650? Or ^H518 is he a homeborn ^H3211 H1004 slave?

Why ^H4069 has he become ^H1961 plunder ^H957?

“O generation ^H1755, [fn]behold ^H7200 the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068.

Have I been ^H1961 a wilderness ^H4057 to Israel ^H3478

Or ^H518 a land ^H776 of thick ^H3991 darkness ^H3991?

Why ^H4069 do My people ^H5971 say ^H559, ‘We are free to roam ^H7300;

We will no ^H3808 longer ^H5750 come ^H935 to You’?

“Why ^H4069 then has this ^H2088 people ^H5971, Jerusalem ^H3389,

[fn]Turned ^H7725 away ^H7725 in continual ^H5329 faithlessness ^H4878?

They hold ^H2388 fast ^H2388 to deceit ^H8649;

They refuse ^H3985 to return ^H7725.

Behold ^H2009, the sound ^H6963! The cry ^H7775 of the daughter ^H1323 of my people ^H5971 from a distant ^H4801 land ^H776:

“Is Yahweh ^H3068 not in Zion ^H6726? Is her King ^H4428 not within her?”

“Why ^H4069 have they provoked ^H3707 Me to anger ^H3707 with their graven ^H6456 images ^H6456, with foreign ^H5236 [fn]idols ^H1892?”

Is ^H369 there ^H369 no ^H369 balm ^H6875 in Gilead ^H1568?

Is ^H369 there ^H369 no ^H369 physician ^H7495 there ^H8033?

Why ^H4069 then ^H3588 has not the [fn]health ^H724 of the daughter ^H1323 of my people ^H5971 gone ^H5927 up ^H5927?

Righteous ^H6662 are You, O Yahweh ^H3068, when I would plead ^H7378 my case ^H7378 with You;

Indeed ^H389 I would speak ^H1696 matters ^H4941 of ^H4941 justice ^H4941 with You:

Why ^H4069 has the way ^H1870 of the wicked ^H7563 succeeded ^H6743?

Why are ^H7951 all ^H3605 those who deal ^H898 in treachery ^H899 complacent ^H7951?

“If ^H3588 you say ^H559 in your heart ^H3824,

‘Why ^H4069 have these ^H428 things ^H428 happened ^H7122 to me?’

Because of the magnitude ^H7230 of your iniquity ^H5771

Your skirts ^H7757 have been uncovered ^H1540

And your heels ^H6119 have suffered ^H2554 violence ^H2554.

Have You completely ^H3988 rejected ^H3988 Judah ^H3063?

Or ^H518 [fn]have You loathed ^H1602 Zion ^H6726?

Why ^H4069 have You stricken ^H5221 us so that there ^H369 is ^H369 no ^H369 healing ^H4832 for us?

We hoped ^H6960 for peace ^H7965, but there ^H369 was ^H369 no ^H369 good ^H2896;

And for a time ^H6256 of healing ^H4832, but behold ^H2009, terror ^H1205!

“Is this ^H2088 man ^H376 Coniah ^H3078 a despised ^H959, shattered ^H5310 jar ^H6089?

Or ^H518 is he an undesirable ^H369 H2656 vessel ^H3627?

Why ^H4069 have he and his seed ^H2233 been hurled ^H2904 out ^H2904

And cast ^H7993 into a land ^H776 that they had not known ^H3045?

‘Ask ^H7592 now ^H4994, and see ^H7200

If ^H518 a male ^H2145 can give ^H3205 birth ^H3205.

Why ^H4069 do I see ^H7200 every ^H3605 man ^H1397

With his hands ^H3027 on his loins ^H2504, as a woman in ^H3205 childbirth ^H3205?

And why have all ^H3605 faces ^H6440 turned ^H2015 pale ^H3420?

“Why ^H4069 have I seen ^H7200 it?

They are shattered ^H2844;

They are drawing ^H5472 back ^H268,

And their mighty ^H1368 men ^H1368 are crushed ^H3807

And have fled ^H5127 to refuge ^H4498,

Without ^H3808 facing ^H6437 back ^H6437;

[fn]Terror ^H4032 is on every ^H5439 side ^H5439!”

Declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

“Why ^H4069 are your mighty ^H47 ones ^H47 thrown ^H5502 down ^H5502?

They do not stand ^H5975 because ^H3588 Yahweh ^H3068 has thrust ^H1920 them down ^H1920.

Concerning the sons ^H1121 of Ammon ^H5983. Thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068:

“Does Israel ^H3478 have ^H369 no ^H369 sons ^H1121?

Or ^H518 has ^H369 he no ^H369 one who can take possession ^H3423?

Why ^H4069 then has [fn]Malcam ^H4445 taken ^H3423 possession ^H3423 of Gad ^H1410

And his people ^H5971 settled ^H3427 in its cities ^H5892?

“Yet you say ^H559, ‘Why ^H4069 should the son ^H1121 not bear ^H5375 the punishment ^H5771 for the father’s ^H1 iniquity ^H5771?’ But the son ^H1121 has done ^H6213 justice ^H4941 and righteousness ^H6666 and has kept ^H8104 all ^H3605 My statutes ^H2708 and done ^H6213 them. He shall surely ^H2421 live ^H2421.

“Do we not all ^H3605 have one ^H259 father ^H1? Has not one ^H259 God ^H410 created ^H1254 us? Why ^H4069 do we deal ^H898 treacherously ^H898 each ^H376 against his brother ^H251 so as to profane ^H2490 the covenant ^H1285 of our fathers ^H1?
