1Israel is an empty vine, he bringeth forth fruite vnto himselfe: according to the multitude of his fruite, he hath increased the altars, according to the goodnesse of his land, they haue made goodly images. 2Their heart is diuided: now shall they be found faultie: hee shall breake downe their altars: he shall spoile their images. 3For now they shall say, We haue no King, because we feared not the Lord, What then should a King doe to vs?
