에스겔 15장 NASB

  1. 1 Then the word of the LORD came to me saying
  2. 2 "Son of man how is the wood of the vine better than any wood of a branch which is among the trees of the forest?
  3. 3 "Can wood be taken from it to make anything or can men take a peg from it on which to hang any vessel?
  4. 4 "If it has been put into the fire for fuel and the fire has consumed both of its ends and its middle part has been charred is it then useful for anything?
  5. 5 "Behold while it is intact it is not made into anything. How much less when the fire has consumed it and it is charred can it still be made into anything!
  6. 6 "Therefore thus says the Lord GOD 'As the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest which I have given to the fire for fuel so have I given up the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
  7. 7 and I set My face against them. Though they have come out of the fire yet the fire will consume them. Then you will know that I am the LORD when I set My face against them.
  8. 8 'Thus I will make the land desolate because they have acted unfaithfully'" declares the Lord GOD.
