| # Chapter 15
#### 1 | And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
#### 2 | Son of man, what shall be made of the wood of the vine, out of all the trees of the woods that are among the trees of the forests?
#### 3 | Shall wood be taken of if, to do any work, or shall a pin be made of it for any vessel to hang thereon?
#### 4 | Behold it is cast into the fire for fuel: the fire hath consumed both ends thereof, and the midst thereof is reduced to ashes: shall it be useful for any work?
#### 5 | Even when it was whole it was not fit for work: how much less, when the fire hath devoured and consumed it, shall any work be made of it?
#### 6 | Therefore thus saith the Lord God: As the vine tree among the trees of the forests which I have given to the fire to be consumed, so will I deliver up the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
#### 7 | And I will set my face against them: they shall go out from fire, and fire shall consume them : and you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have set my face against them.
#### 8 | And I shall have made their land a wilderness, and desolate, because they have been transgressors, saith the Lord God.
