2 “Son of man, how is the wood of the vine more than any wood, the vine branch that is among the trees of the forest? 3 Is wood taken from it it to use for work? Or do they make from it a peg to hang any vessel on it? 4 Behold, it is given to the fire for food; the two of its ends the fire devours, and the middle of it is burned. Is it useful for work? 5 Behold, in its being complete, it could not be made for work; how much less when the fire has devoured it and it is burned, can it even be made yet for work! 6 Therefore, thus says the Lord YHWH: ‘Just like the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for food, so I have given those dwelling in Jerusalem. 7 And I will set My face against them; from the fire they will come out, and the fire will devour them! And you⁺ will know that I am YHWH, in My setting My face against them. Ezekiel 15:2-7, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
