Shamba la mzabibu la Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote ni nyumba ya Israeli, na watu wa Yuda ni bustani yake ya kumpendeza. Alitazamia haki, lakini akaona umwagaji damu, alitazamia uadilifu, lakini akasikia vilio vya taabu.

Isaiah 5:7 in English

For the vineyard of the LORD of Hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah are the plant of His delight. He looked for justice, but saw bloodshed; for righteousness, but heard a cry of distress.

Context

5Sasa nitawaambia lile nitakalolitendea shamba langu la mizabibu: Nitaondoa uzio wake, nalo litaharibiwa, nitabomoa ukuta wake, nalo litakanyagwa. 6Nitalifanya nchi ya ukiwa isiyokaliwa na watu, halitakatiwa matawi wala kulimwa, nayo michongoma na miiba itamea huko, nitaamuru mawingu yasinyeshe mvua juu yake.” 7Shamba la mzabibu la Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote ni nyumba ya Israeli, na watu wa Yuda ni bustani yake ya kumpendeza. Alitazamia haki, lakini akaona umwagaji damu, alitazamia uadilifu, lakini akasikia vilio vya taabu. 8Ole wenu mnaoongeza nyumba baada ya nyumba na kuunganisha mashamba baada ya mashamba hadi hakuna nafasi iliyobaki, nanyi mnaishi peke yenu katika nchi. 9Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote amesema nikisikia: “Hakika nyumba kubwa zitakuwa ukiwa, nayo majumba ya fahari yatabaki bila kukaliwa.
