7 For the vineyard of the Lord of Hosts is the house of Israel, and the man of Judah a beloved young plant; I waited for (him) to bring forth judgment, but he brought forth transgression, and not righteousness, but a cry.

[*](I. ‘hill-top,’ lit. ‘hom.’ Strictly, Α reads ‘the beloved’ in both B in the second.)[*](1. ‘bring forth...brought forth,’ lit. ‘make...made,’ same word as ver. 4., Cf. Matt. 16.)[*](3. B has order as in Heb. Lit. ‘in my case (or, upon me) and ‘between my ’ (mixed construction, partly Hebraism).)[*](5. Lit. ‘for a plundering...for a treading.’ A, by clerical error, reads ‘plundering’ twice, and ‘house,’ afterwards corrected, for ‘wall.’)[*](6. Possibly ‘a thorn’ (or collective) ℵcaAQ c. ‘waste place,’ a misreading or guess for ‘briers’ (ABBREVor ABBREVfor ABBREV). Also vii. 23, 25.)

8 Woe, they that join house to house, and set ﬁeld next to ﬁeld, that they may rob somewhat from their neighbour; will ye dwell alone upon the earth?

9 For this was heard in the ears of the Lord of Hosts; For if houses become many, they shall be a desolation; great ones and fair, and there shall be none that inhabit them.

10 For where ten yoke of oxen plough, it shall yield one jar, and he that soweth six bushels shall get three measures.

11 Woe, they that rise up early, and follow strong drink; that tarry till late; for wine shall burn them up.

12 For with harp, and psaltery, and tabrets, and pipes, drink they their wine; but they regard not the works of the Lord, and the works of his hands they consider not.
