Ezekiel 15:2-4

Complete Jewish Bible

² “Human being, why should wood from a grapevine be better
than some other kind of wood,
than some branch that one might find
among the trees of the forest?
³ Its wood can’t be used to make anything,
not even a pin on which to hang a pot.
⁴ So now it is thrown in the fire as fuel,
the fire consumes both ends of it,
and the middle of it is singed —
is it useful now for making something?
