Isaiah 5:2

5:2 He built a hedge around it, ¹  removed its stones,

and planted a vine.

He built a tower in the middle of it,

and constructed a winepress.

He waited for it to produce edible grapes,

but it produced sour ones instead. ²

30:25 On every high mountain

and every high hill

there will be streams flowing with water,

at the time of ³  great slaughter when the fortified towers collapse.
