Isaiah 5:2
New King James Version
2 He dug it up and cleared out its stones,
And planted it with the choicest vine.
He built a tower in its midst,
And also [a]made a winepress in it;
(A)So He expected it to bring forth good grapes,
But it brought forth wild grapes.

And planted it with [a]the (A)choicest vine.

But it produced only [c]worthless ones.
