on a very fertile hill.

and planted it with (A)choice vines;
he built a watchtower in the midst of it,
and hewed out a wine vat in it;
and (B)he looked for it to yield grapes,
but it yielded wild grapes.

judge between me and my vineyard.

7 (A)For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts
is the house of Israel,
and the men of Judah
are his pleasant planting;
and he looked for justice,
but behold, bloodshed;[a]
for righteousness,
but behold, an outcry![b]
