In that day:
“A pleasant vineyard, sing of it!
    I, the Lord, am its keeper;
    every moment I water it.
Lest any one harm it,
    I guard it night and day;
    I have no wrath.
Would that I had thorns and briers to battle!
    I would set out against them,
    I would burn them up together.
Or let them lay hold of my protection,
    let them make peace with me,
    let them make peace with me.”

In days to come[a] Jacob shall take root,
    Israel shall blossom and put forth shoots,
    and fill the whole world with fruit.

I guard(E) it day and night
    so that no one may harm(F) it.
    I am not angry.
If only there were briers and thorns confronting me!
    I would march against them in battle;
    I would set them all on fire.(G)
Or else let them come to me for refuge;(H)
    let them make peace(I) with me,
    yes, let them make peace with me.”
