Your vine sent its branches out all the way to the Mediterranean Sea. They reached as far as the Euphrates River.Why have you broken down the walls around your vine? Now all who pass by it can pick its grapes.Wild pigs from the forest destroy it. Insects from the fields feed on it.God who rules over all, return to us! Look down from heaven and see us! Watch over your vine.Guard the root you have planted with your powerful right hand. Take care of the branch you have raised up for yourself.Your vine has been cut down and burned in the fire. You have been angry with us, and we are dying.

Ezekiel 15:2-7
“ Son of man, how is the wood of a vine different from the wood of any tree in the forest?Can its wood ever be made into anything useful? Can pegs be made from it to hang things on?Suppose it is thrown in the fire to be burned. And the fire burns both ends and blackens the middle. Then is the wood useful for anything?It was not useful when it was whole. So how can it be made into something useful now? The fire has burned it and blackened it.”Here is what the Lord and King says.“ Instead of the wood of any tree in the forest, I have given the vine to burn in the fire. I will treat the people who live in Jerusalem the same way.I will turn against them. They might have come out of the fire. But the fire will destroy them anyway. I will turn against them. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
