Isaiah 27:4

2 In that day: “Sing about a fruitful vineyard.

3 I, the LORD, am its keeper; I water it continually. I guard it night and day so no one can disturb it;

I am not angry. If only thorns and briers confronted Me, I would march and trample them, I would burn them to the ground.

5 Or let them lay claim to My protection; let them make peace with Me— yes, let them make peace with Me.”

6 In the days to come, Jacob will take root. Israel will bud and blossom and fill the whole world with fruit.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
