Ἱνατί καθεῖλες τὸν φραγμὸν αὐτῆς, καὶ τρυγῶσιν αὐτὴν πάντες οἱ παραπορευόμενοι τὴν ὁδόν;
Wherefore hast thou broken down its hedge, While all that pass by the way pluck it?

16
וְכַנָּה אֲשֶׁר־נָטְעָה יְמִינֶךָ וְעַל־בֵּן אִמַּצְתָּה לָּךְ
And of the stock which Thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that Thou madest strong for Thyself.
