You (A)cleared the ground for it;
    it took deep root and filled the land.
10 The mountains were covered with its shade,
    the mighty cedars with its branches.
11 It sent out its branches to (B)the sea
    and its shoots to (C)the River.[a]
12 Why then have you (D)broken down its walls,
    so that all who pass along the way pluck its fruit?
13 (E)The boar from the forest ravages it,
    and all that move in the field feed on it.

14 Turn again, O God of hosts!
    (F)Look down from heaven, and see;
have regard for this vine,
15     the stock that your right hand planted,
    and for the son whom you made strong for yourself.
16 They have (G)burned it with fire; they have (H)cut it down;
    may they perish at (I)the rebuke of your face!
