A Song about a Vineyard
The Lord said:
5 (A) I will sing a song
about my friend's vineyard
that was on the side
of a fertile hill.

Isaiah 5:2
Contemporary English Version
2 My friend dug the ground,
removed the stones,
and planted the best vines.
He built a watchtower
and dug a pit in rocky ground
for pressing the grapes.
He hoped they would be sweet,
but bitter grapes
were all it produced.
