15:2 Son of man, how is the wood of the vine better than any other wood, the vine branch from a tree in the forest?
15:3 Is its wood used to make anything? Are pegs fashioned from it to hang anything?
15:4 If it is thrown on the fire for fuel, and the fire consumes both ends and chars the middle, is it useful for anything?
15:5 When it was whole, it served no purpose. How much less, when the fire has consumed it and it is charred, can it be used for anything?
15:6 Therefore, thus says the Lord God: Like the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest that I have thrown on the fire for fuel, so will I treat the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
15:7 I have set my face against them. Although they escape from the fire, that fire will still devour them. And you will know that I am the Lord when I turn my face against them.
15:8 I will reduce the entire land into a desolate waste because they have been unfaithful, says the Lord God.
