5 Let me sing, please, to my beloved one a song of my loved one concerning his vineyard.+ There was a vineyard that my beloved one came to have on a fruitful hillside.*

2 “Son of man, in what way does the vine+ tree happen to be different from every other tree, the shoot, that has come to be among the trees of the forest?

6 And it began to sprout and gradually became a luxuriantly growing vine low in height,+ inclined to turn its foliage inward; and as for its roots, they gradually came to be under it. And it finally became a vine and produced shoots and sent forth branches.+
