American King James Version
15 : 1 And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
15 : 2 Son of man, what is the vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the forest?
15 : 3 Shall wood be taken thereof to do any work? or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?
15 : 4 Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire devours both the ends of it, and the middle of it is burned. Is it meet for any work?
15 : 5 Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work: how much less shall it be meet yet for any work, when the fire has devoured it, and it is burned?
15 : 6 Therefore thus said the Lord GOD; As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
15 : 7 And I will set my face against them; they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall devour them; and you shall know that I am the LORD, when I set my face against them.
15 : 8 And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass, said the Lord GOD.
