2 In that day(A) the Branch of the Lord(B) will be beautiful(C) and glorious, and the fruit(D) of the land will be the pride and glory(E) of the survivors(F) in Israel. 3 Those who are left in Zion,(G) who remain(H) in Jerusalem, will be called holy,(I) all who are recorded(J) among the living in Jerusalem. 4 The Lord will wash away the filth(K) of the women of Zion;(L) he will cleanse(M) the bloodstains(N) from Jerusalem by a spirit[a] of judgment(O) and a spirit[b] of fire.(P) 5 Then the Lord will create(Q) over all of Mount Zion(R) and over those who assemble there a cloud of smoke by day and a glow of flaming fire by night;(S) over everything the glory[c](T) will be a canopy.(U) 6 It will be a shelter(V) and shade from the heat of the day, and a refuge(W) and hiding place from the storm(X) and rain.
The Song of the Vineyard
5 I will sing for the one I love
a song about his vineyard:(Y)
My loved one had a vineyard
on a fertile hillside.
2 He dug it up and cleared it of stones
and planted it with the choicest vines.(Z)
He built a watchtower(AA) in it
and cut out a winepress(AB) as well.
Then he looked for a crop of good grapes,
but it yielded only bad fruit.(AC)
3 “Now you dwellers in Jerusalem and people of Judah,
judge between me and my vineyard.(AD)
4 What more could have been done for my vineyard
than I have done for it?(AE)
When I looked for good grapes,
why did it yield only bad?(AF)
5 Now I will tell you
what I am going to do to my vineyard:
I will take away its hedge,
and it will be destroyed;(AG)
I will break down its wall,(AH)
and it will be trampled.(AI)
6 I will make it a wasteland,(AJ)
neither pruned nor cultivated,
and briers and thorns(AK) will grow there.
I will command the clouds
not to rain(AL) on it.”

Luke 19:29-38
New International Version
29 As he approached Bethphage and Bethany(A) at the hill called the Mount of Olives,(B) he sent two of his disciples, saying to them, 30 “Go to the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it.’”
32 Those who were sent ahead went and found it just as he had told them.(C) 33 As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why are you untying the colt?”
34 They replied, “The Lord needs it.”
35 They brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it. 36 As he went along, people spread their cloaks(D) on the road.
37 When he came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives,(E) the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen:
“Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”(G)
