(A)What more was there to do for my vineyard,
    that I have not done in it?
(B)When I looked for it to yield grapes,
    why did it yield wild grapes?

And now I will tell you
    what I will do to my vineyard.
I will remove (C)its hedge,
    and it shall be devoured;[a]
(D)I will break down its wall,
    and it shall be trampled down.
I will make it a waste;
    it shall not be pruned or hoed,
    and (E)briers and thorns shall grow up;
(F)I will also command the clouds
    that they rain no rain upon it.
