15:2 “Son of man, how does the wood of the vine, that branch among the trees of the forest, compare to any other wood?
15:3 Can wood be taken from it to make something useful? Or can anyone make a peg from it to hang things on?
15:4 In fact, it is put into the fire as fuel. The fire devours both of its ends, and the middle is charred. Can it be useful for anything?
15:5 Even when it was whole it could not be made into a useful object. How much less can it ever be made into anything useful when the fire has devoured it and it is charred!”
15:6 Therefore, this is what the Lord God says, “Like the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire as fuel, so I will give up the residents of Jerusalem.
15:7 I will turn against them. They may have escaped from the fire, but it will still consume them. And you will know that I am the Lord when I turn against them.
15:8 I will make the land desolate because they have acted unfaithfully.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.
