1   And the word of the Lord was maad to me, 2   and he seide, Sone of man, what schal be don to the tre of a vyne, of alle the trees of woodis, that ben among the trees of woodis? 3   Whether tymbre schal be takun therof, that werk be maad? ether shal a stake be maad therof, that ony vessel hange ther onne? 4   Lo! it is &yogh;ouun in to mete; fier wastide euer eithir part therof, and the myddis therof is dryuun in to deed sparcle; whether it schal be profitable to werk? 5   &YOGH;he, whanne it was hool, it was not couenable to werk; hou myche more whanne fier hath deuourid, and hath brent it, no thing of werk schal be maad therof? 6   Therfor the Lord God seith thes thingis, As the tre of a vyne is among the trees of woodis, which Y &yogh;af to fier to deuoure, so Y &yogh;af the dwelleris of Jerusalem, 7   and Y schal sette my face a&yogh;ens hem. Thei schulen go out of the fier, and fier schal waaste hem; and &yogh;e schulen wite, that Y am the Lord, whanne Y schal sette my face a&yogh;ens hem, 8   and schal &yogh;yue the lond with out weie and desolat, for thei weren trespassours, seith the Lord God.
