2 In that day—

“Sing about a fruitful vineyard:

3 I, the Lord, watch over it;

I water it continually.

I guard it day and night

so that no one may harm it.

4 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.

5 Or else let them come to me for refuge;

let them make peace with me,

yes, let them make peace with me.”

2 In that day sing ye unto her,

A vineyard of red wine.

3 I the Lord do keep it;

I will water it every moment:

Lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day.

4 Fury is not in me:

Who would set the briers and thorns against me in battle?

I would go through them, I would burn them together.

5 Or let him take hold of my strength,

That he may make peace with me;

And he shall make peace with me.

2 “In that day,

sing about the fruitful vineyard.

3 I, the Lord, will watch over it,

watering it carefully.

Day and night I will watch so no one can harm it.

4 My anger will be gone.

If I find briers and thorns growing,

I will attack them;

I will burn them up—

5 unless they turn to me for help.

Let them make peace with me;

yes, let them make peace with me.”

2 In that day sing to her,

“A vineyard of red wine!

3 I, the Lord, keep it,

I water it every moment;

Lest any hurt it,

I keep it night and day.

4 Fury is not in Me.

Who would set briers and thorns

Against Me in battle?

I would go through them,

I would burn them together.

5 Or let him take hold of My strength,

That he may make peace with Me;

And he shall make peace with Me.”

2 At that time

people will sing about the pleasant vineyard.

3 “I, the Lord, will care for that vineyard;

I will water it at the right time.

No one will hurt it,

because I will guard it day and night.

4 I am not angry.

If anyone builds a wall of thornbushes in war,

I will march to it and burn it.

5 But if anyone comes to me for safety

and wants to make peace with me,

he should come and make peace with me.”

2 In that day: A vineyard of wine, sing ye unto it. 3 I Jehovah am its keeper; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day. 4 Wrath is not in me: would that the briers and thorns were against me in battle! I would march upon them, I would burn them together. 5 Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; yea, let him make peace with me.

2 In that day there shall be a vineyard of pure wine; sing concerning it: 3 I Jehovah keep it, I will water it every moment; lest any harm it, I will keep it night and day. 4 Fury is not in me. Oh that I had briars and thorns in battle against me! I would march against them, I would burn them together. 5 Or let him take hold of my strength; let him make peace with me: yea, let him make peace with me.

2 On that day sing about a delightful vineyard. 

3 I, the Lord, watch over it. 

I water it continually. 

I watch over it day and night 

so that no one will harm it. 

4 I am no longer angry. 

If only thorns and briars would confront me! 

I would fight them in battle and set all of them on fire. 

5 Or else let them come to me for protection. 

Let them make peace with me. 

Yes, let them make peace with me. 

2 On that day

sing about a desirable vineyard:

3 I, Yahweh, watch over it;

I water it regularly.

I guard it night and day

so that no one disturbs it.

4 I am not angry,

but if it produces thorns and briers for Me,

I will fight against it, trample it,

and burn it to the ground.

5 Or let it take hold of My strength;

let it make peace with Me—

make peace with Me.

2 On that day:

A pleasant vineyard, sing about it!

3 I, the Lord, am its keeper;

every moment I water it.

I guard it night and day

so that no one can harm it;

4 I have no wrath.

If it gives me thorns and briers,

I will march to battle against it.

I will burn it up.

5 Or else let it cling to me for protection,

let it make peace with me,

let it make peace with me.

2 On that day:

“A vineyard of beauty! Sing in praise of it!

3 I, Yahweh, am her keeper;

I water it again and again.

Lest one afflict harm on it,

I guard it night and day;

4 I have no wrath.

Whatever gives me thorns and briers,

I will step forth against in battle.

I will set it on fire altogether.

5 Or let it grasp at my protection;

let it make peace with me;

peace let it make with me.”

2 At that time the Lord will sing about his fruitful vineyard. He will say,

3 “I am the Lord. I watch over my vineyard.

I water it all the time.

I guard it day and night.

I do it so no one can harm it.

4 I am not angry with my vineyard.

I wish thorns and bushes would come up in it.

Then I would march out against them in battle.

I would set all of them on fire.

5 So the enemies of my people had better come to me for safety.

They should make peace with me.

I will say it again.

They should make peace with me.”

2 In that day,

“A vineyard of wine, sing of it!

3 “I, the Lord, am its keeper;

I water it every moment.

So that no one will damage it,

I guard it night and day.

4 “I have no wrath.

Should someone give Me briars and thorns in battle,

Then I would step on them, I would burn them completely.

5 “Or let him rely on My protection,

Let him make peace with Me,

Let him make peace with Me.”
