5 Now I will tell you

what I am about to do to my vineyard:

I will remove its hedge,b

and it will be consumed;

I will tear down its wall,c

and it will be trampled.

6 I will make it a wasteland.d

It will not be pruned or weeded;

thorns and briers will grow up.e

I will also give orders to the clouds

that rain should not fall on it.
