Textus Receptus Bibles
Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 15:1 | And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying, |
| 15:2 | Son of man, how is the vine tree more than any other tree, or than a branch that is among the trees of the forest? |
| 15:3 | Shall wood be taken from it to do work? Or will men take from it for a peg to hang every vessel on it? |
| 15:4 | Behold, it is put in the fire for fuel. The fire devours both its ends, and its middle is charred. Will it prosper for work? |
| 15:5 | Behold, when it was whole it was not made for work. How much less when the fire has devoured it, and it is charred! Shall it yet be made to work? |
| 15:6 | Therefore, so says the Lord Jehovah: As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, it which I have given to the fire for fuel, so I will give the dwellers of Jerusalem. |
| 15:7 | And I will set my face against them. They shall go out from the fire, and the fire shall devour them. And you shall know that I am Jehovah when I set My face against them. |
| 15:8 | And I will give the land to be desolate because they have done a treacherous act, declares the Lord Jehovah. |
