Isaiah 5:2
Analilima, anaondoa mawe, na anaotesha aina ya mizabibu iliyo bora. Na hujenga mnara katikati ya shamba akichimba shinkizo ndani yake. Anasubiria mzabibu uzae matunda lakini unazaa zabibu mwitu.
Isaiah 5:2 · Biblia TakatifuIsaiah 5:2 in other translations
And he fenced it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also made a winepress therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.
He dug it up and cleared the stones and planted the finest vines. He built a watchtower in the middle and dug out a winepress as well. He waited for the vineyard to yield good grapes, but the fruit it produced was sour!

In context
1 Acha niimbe kwa mpendwa wangu mzuri, wimbo wa mpendwa wangu kuhusu shamba la mzabibu. Mpendwa wangu ana shamba kwenye mlima wenye rutuba.
2 Analilima, anaondoa mawe, na anaotesha aina ya mizabibu iliyo bora. Na hujenga mnara katikati ya shamba akichimba shinkizo ndani yake. Anasubiria mzabibu uzae matunda lakini unazaa zabibu mwitu.
3 Kwa hiyo sasa, wakazi wa Yerusalemu na watu wa Yuda, toa hukumu kati yangu na shamba la mzabibu.
4 Je ni kitu gani cha ziada unaweza ukakifanya kwenye shamba langu la mizabibu, ambacho sijakifanya? ninapotamzamia izae matunda, kwa nini inazaa matunda mwitu?
5 Sasa nitawambia kitu nitakacho kifanya kwenye shamba langu la mzabibu: nitaondoa uzio, nitaligeuza kuwa malisho, Nitavunja ukuta wake chini. Na itakanyagwa chini.
