8 You transplanted a vine from Egypt;

you drove out the nations and planted it.

9 You cleared the ground for it,

and it took root and filled the land.

10 The mountains were covered with its shade,

the mighty cedars with its branches.

11 Its branches reached as far as the Sea,

its shoots as far as the River.

12 Why have you broken down its walls

so that all who pass by pick its grapes?

13 Boars from the forest ravage it,

and insects from the fields feed on it.

8 Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt:

Thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.

9 Thou preparedst room before it,

And didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.

10 The hills were covered with the shadow of it,

And the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars.

11 She sent out her boughs unto the sea,

And her branches unto the river.

12 Why hast thou then broken down her hedges,

So that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?

13 The boar out of the wood doth waste it,

And the wild beast of the field doth devour it.

8 You brought us from Egypt like a grapevine;

you drove away the pagan nations and transplanted us into your land.

9 You cleared the ground for us,

and we took root and filled the land.

10 Our shade covered the mountains;

our branches covered the mighty cedars.

11 We spread our branches west to the Mediterranean Sea;

our shoots spread east to the Euphrates River.

12 But now, why have you broken down our walls

so that all who pass by may steal our fruit?

13 The wild boar from the forest devours it,

and the wild animals feed on it.

8 You have brought a vine out of Egypt;

You have cast out the nations, and planted it.

9 You prepared room for it,

And caused it to take deep root,

And it filled the land.

10 The hills were covered with its shadow,

And the mighty cedars with its boughs.

11 She sent out her boughs to the Sea,

And her branches to the River.

12 Why have You broken down her hedges,

So that all who pass by the way pluck her fruit?

13 The boar out of the woods uproots it,

And the wild beast of the field devours it.

8 You brought us out of Egypt as if we were a vine.

You forced out other nations and planted us in the land.

9 You cleared the ground for us.

Like a vine, we took root and filled the land.

10 We covered the mountains with our shade.

We had limbs like the mighty cedar tree.

11 Our branches reached the Mediterranean Sea,

and our shoots went to the Euphrates River.

12 So why did you pull down our walls?

Now everyone who passes by steals from us.

13 Like wild pigs they walk over us;

like wild animals they feed on us.

So that all they that pass by the way do pluck it?

And the wild beasts of the field feed on it.

10 Its shade covered the mountains. 

Its branches covered the mighty cedars. 

11 It reached out with its branches to the Mediterranean Sea. 

Its shoots reached the Euphrates River. 

12 Why did you break down the stone fences around this vine? 

All who pass by are picking its fruit. 

13 Wild boars from the forest graze on it. 

Wild animals devour it.

You drove out the nations and planted it.

9 You cleared a place for it;

and the mighty cedars with its branches.

11 It sent out sprouts toward the Sea

and shoots toward the River.

and creatures of the field feed on it.

8 You brought Israel out of Egypt.

Israel was like a vine.

After you drove the nations out of Canaan,

you planted the vine in their land.

9 You prepared the ground for it.

It took root and spread out over the whole land.

And whatever moves in the field feeds on it.
