Ezekiel 15

15
Is Jerusalem Useful for Anything?
1Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, 2“Son of man, how is the wood of the vine better than any wood of a branch which is among the trees of the forest? 3Can wood be taken from it to make #15:3 Lit a workanything, or can men take a peg from it on which to hang any vessel? 4#15:4 Or BeholdIf it has been put into the fire for fuel, and the fire has consumed both of its ends, and its middle part has been charred, is it then useful for #15:4 Lit a workanything? 5Behold, while it is intact, it is not made into #15:5 Lit a workanything. How much less, when the fire has consumed it and it is charred, can it still be made into #15:5 Lit a workanything! 6Therefore, thus says Lord Yahweh, ‘As the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so have I given up the inhabitants of Jerusalem; 7and I will give My face to be against them. Though they have come out of the fire, yet the fire will consume them. Then you will know that I am Yahweh, when I set My face against them. 8Thus I will give over the land to desolation because they have acted unfaithfully,’ ” declares Lord Yahweh.
