Tap a verse to highlight it

1 耶和華 的話 臨 到我 說:

2 「人 子啊,葡萄 樹 比別樣 樹 有 甚麼強處?葡萄枝 比眾樹 枝有甚麼好處?

3 其上 可以取 木料 做 甚麼工用,可以 取來 做釘子 掛 甚麼 器皿麼?

4 看哪,已經拋 在火 中當作柴燒,火 既燒了 兩 頭,中間 也被燒了,還有益於 工用嗎?

5 完全 的時候 尚且不 合乎 甚麼工用,何況 被火 燒 壞,還能 合乎 甚麼工用麼?」

6 所以,主 耶和華 如此 說: 眾樹 以內的葡萄 樹,我怎樣 使 它在火 中當柴,也必照樣 待 耶路撒冷 的居民。

7 我必向他們 變 臉;他們雖從火 中出來,火 卻要燒滅他們。我向他們 變 臉的時候,你們就知道 我 是耶和華。

8 我必使 地土 荒涼,因為 他們行事 干犯我。這是主 耶和華 說的。」

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the parable in Ezekiel 15 about?
God compares Jerusalem to a vine branch, which unlike other wood is useless for any craft and fit only to be burned, useless even before the fire touches it.
What does verse 6 say will happen to Jerusalem?
'As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem,' directly applying the parable's image to judgment.
How does this short chapter end?
It closes with God saying he will make the land desolate 'because they have committed a trespass' (v8), echoing the desolation language used just before in Ezekiel 14:8.
