2 And he thoroughly digged it, And gathered out the stones thereof, And planted it with a precious vine, And built a tower in the midst thereof, Moreover also, a wine–press, hewed he therein,––Then waited he, that it should bring forth grapes. And it brought forth wild, grapes:
3 Now, therefore, O inhabitant of Jerusalem, And men of Judah,––Judge, I pray you, betwixt me, and my vineyard:––
4 What could have been done further, to my vineyard, That I had not done in it? Why then––When I had waited that it should bring forth grapes, Brought it forth wild, grapes?
5 Now, therefore, I pray you, let me tell, you, what I, am about to do to my vineyard,––To take away the fence thereof, And it shall be eaten up, To destroy the wall thereof, And it shall be trodden down;
6 And I will make it a waste; ––It shall be neither pruned nor hoed, But there shall come up briars and thorns,––And, upon the clouds, will I lay a charge, That they rain thereon no rain.

4 And, again, sent he forth unto them, another servant; and, him, they smote on the head, and dishonoured.
5 And another sent he forth; and, him, they slew. And many others; some, indeed beating, and, others, slaying.
6 Yet one, had he, a son beloved: he sent him forth last unto them, saying––They will pay deference unto my son!
7 But, those husbandmen, unto themselves, said––This, is the heir: Come! let us slay him, and, ours, shall be, the inheritance.

2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit, He taketh it away; and, every one that beareth, fruit, He pruneth it, that, more fruit, it may bear.
3 Already, ye, are, pure, because of the word which I have spoken unto you:
4 Abide in me, and, I, in you. Just as, the branch, cannot be bearing fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine, so, neither, ye, except, in me, ye abide.
5 I, am the vine: Ye, are the branches. He that abideth in me and, I, in him, the same, beareth much fruit; because, apart from me, ye can bring forth, nothing.
6 If one abide not me, he is cast out as the branch, and withered, and they gather them,––and, into fire, they cast them, and they are burned.
7 If ye abide in me, and, my sayings, in you, abide, whatsoever ye may be desiring, ask! and it shall be brought to pass for you.
8 Herein, was my Father glorified, that, much fruit, ye should bear, and become my disciples.

9 For we are, God’s, fellow–workmen: ye are, God’s, farm, God’s building.
