1 Israel is a branching vine, full of fruit; as his fruit is increased, so the number of his altars is increased; as the land is fair, so they have made fair pillars.
2 Their mind is taken away; now they will be made waste: he will have their altars broken down, he will give their pillars to destruction.
3 Now, truly, they will say, We have no king, we have no fear of the Lord; and the king, what is he able to do for us?
4 Their words are foolish; they make agreements with false oaths, so punishment will come up like a poison-plant in a ploughed field.
