When that day comes, the fortified cities
    which other people abandoned because of the Israelites
        will be like abandoned woods and undergrowth.
    So it will become a wasteland.

10 You have forgotten the Elohim of your salvation.
    You haven’t remembered the rock, your stronghold.
    Instead, you have planted the best plants
    and have set out the imported grapevines.
11 On the day you plant, you will make it grow.[a]
    On the morning you set out the seedling, you will make it sprout.
    But the harvest will become a [rotting] pile[b]
        on a day of grief and incurable pain.
