8
Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
9
Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.
10
The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars.
11
She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.
12
Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
13
The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.
14
Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine;
15
And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself.
16
It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.

3
And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard.
4

10
And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty.
11
And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and entreated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12
And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out.
13
Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him.
14
But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
15
So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them?
16
He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid.
17
And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
18
Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

15
So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and officers among your tribes.
16
And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear the causes between your brethren, and judge righteously between every man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him.
17

10

11
According to the sentence of the law which they shall teach thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline from the sentence which they shall shew thee, to the right hand, nor to the left.
12
And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto the priest that standeth to minister there before the LORD thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die: and thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.
Deutéronome 33:8-10
8

9
Who said unto his father and to his mother, I have not seen him; neither did he acknowledge his brethren, nor knew his own children: for they have observed thy word, and kept thy covenant.
10
They shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.
Malachie 2:4-9
4
And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.
5
My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name.
6
The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.
7
For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.
8
But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.
9
Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law.
