9In that day his fortified cities will be like the deserted places of the forest and the treetop, which they abandoned before the sons of Israel; and it will become a desolation.

10For you have forgotten the God of your salvation, and have not remembered the Rock of your refuge; therefore you plant pleasant plants and sow it with a foreign vine.

11On the day you plant, you make it grow luxuriantly; and in the morning you make your seed sprout. But the harvest flees away in a day of grief and incurable pain.
