1. Now I will sing for the one I lovea song about his vineyard:My beloved had a vineyardon a rich and fertile hill.
2. He plowed the land, cleared its stones,and planted it with the best vines.In the middle he built a watchtowerand carved a winepress in the nearby rocks.Then he waited for a harvest of sweet grapes,but the grapes that grew were bitter.
3. Now, you people of Jerusalem and Judah,you judge between me and my vineyard.
