Jesus began to speak to the people using stories. He said,“ A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it. He dug a pit for a winepress. He also built a lookout tower. He rented the vineyard out to some farmers. Then he went to another place.

You brought Israel out of Egypt. Israel was like a vine. After you drove the nations out of Canaan, you planted the vine in their land.

Jesus went on to tell the people a story.“ A man planted a vineyard,” he said.“ He rented it out to some farmers. Then he went away for a long time.

“ Listen to another story. A man who owned some land planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it. He dug a pit for a winepress in it. He also built a lookout tower. He rented the vineyard out to some farmers. Then he moved to another place.

You were like a good vine when I planted you. You were a healthy plant. Then how did you turn against me? How did you become a bad, wild vine?

“ I am the true vine. My Father is the gardener.

At that time the Lord will sing about his fruitful vineyard. He will say,“ I am the Lord. I watch over my vineyard. I water it all the time. I guard it day and night. I do it so no one can harm it.

On that day Deborah and Barak sang a song. Barak was the son of Abinoam. Here is what Deborah and Barak sang.“ The princes in Israel lead the way. The people follow them just because they want to. When this happens, praise the Lord!“ Kings, hear this! Rulers, listen! I will sing to the Lord. I will praise the Lord in song. He is the God of Israel.“ Lord, you went out from Seir. You marched out from the land of Edom. The earth shook. The heavens poured. The clouds poured down their water.The mountains shook because of the Lord. He was at Mount Sinai. They shook because of the Lord. He is the God of Israel.“ The main roads were deserted. So travelers used the winding paths. That happened in the days of Shamgar, the son of Anath. It happened in the days of Jael.Those who lived in the villages of Israel would not fight. They held back until I, Deborah, came. I came as a mother in Israel.War came to the city gates. Then God chose new leaders. But no shields or spears were seen anywhere. There weren’t any among 40,000 men in Israel.My heart is with the princes in Israel. It’s with the people who follow them just because they want to. Praise the Lord!“ Some of you ride on white donkeys. Some of you sit on your saddle blankets. Some of you walk along the road. Think aboutthe voices of the singers at the watering places. They sing about the victories of the Lord. They sing about the victories of his people who live in Israel’s villages.“ The people of the Lord went down to the city gates.‘ Wake up, Deborah! Wake up!’ they said.‘ Wake up! Wake up! Begin to sing! Barak, get up! Son of Abinoam, capture your prisoners!’“ The nobles who were left came down. The people of the Lord came down to me against the powerful enemy.Some came from the part of Ephraim where some Amalekites lived. Some from Benjamin were with the people who followed Ephraim. Captains came down from Makir. Those who rule like commanders came down from Zebulun.The princes of Issachar were with Deborah. The men of Issachar were with Barak. They went into the valley under his command. In the territories of Reuben, men looked deeply into their hearts.Why did they stay among the sheep pens? Why did they stay to hear shepherds whistling for the flocks? In the territories of Reuben, men looked deeply into their hearts.Gilead stayed east of the Jordan River. Why did Dan stay near the ships? The men of Asher remained on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. They stayed in their safe harbors.The people of Zebulun put their very lives in danger. So did Naphtali on the hillside fields.“ Kings came and fought. The kings of Canaan fought at Taanach by the streams of Megiddo. But they didn’t carry away any silver. They didn’t take anything at all.From the heavens the stars fought. From the sky they fought against Sisera.The Kishon River swept them away. The Kishon is a very old river. My spirit, march on! Be strong!The hooves of the horses pounded like thunder. The powerful horses of our enemies galloped away.‘ Let Meroz be cursed,’ said the angel of the Lord.‘ Let bitter curses fall on its people. They did not come to help the Lord. They did not come to help him against our powerful enemies.’“ May Jael be the most blessed woman of all. May the wife of Heber, the Kenite, be blessed. May she be the most blessed woman of all those who live in tents.Sisera asked for water. She gave him milk. In a bowl fit for nobles she brought him buttermilk.Her hand reached out for a tent stake. Her right hand reached for a hammer. She hit Sisera. She crushed his head. She drove the stake right through his head.He sank down. He fell at her feet. He was lying there. At her feet he sank down. He fell. He fell where he sank down. That’s where he died.“ Sisera’s mother looked out through the window. From behind the wooden screen she cried out.‘ Why is his chariot taking so long to get here?’ she said.‘ Why can’t I hear the noise of his chariots yet?’Her wisest ladies answer her. And here’s what she keeps saying to herself.She says,‘ They must be finding riches to bring back. They must be dividing them up. Each man is getting a woman or two. They are giving colorful clothes to Sisera. The clothes are very beautiful. He will bring some for me to wear. The men must be finding many things to bring home.’“ Lord, may all your enemies be destroyed. But may all who love you be like the morning sun. May they be like the sun when it shines the brightest.” So the land was at peace for 40 years.

I will sing about your love and fairness. Lord, I will sing praise to you.

“ My love belongs to me, and I belong to him. Like an antelope, he eats among the lilies.

“ I want you to write down a song and teach it to the Israelites. Have them sing it. It will be my witness against them.I will bring them into a land that has plenty of milk and honey. I promised the land to their people of long ago. In that land they will eat until they have had enough. They will get fat. When they do, they will turn to other gods and worship them. They will turn their backs on me. They will break my covenant.Many horrible troubles and hard times will come on them. Then the song I am giving you will be a witness against them. That is because the song will not be forgotten by their children and their children’s children. I know what they are likely to do. I know it even before I bring them into the land I promised them.”So that day Moses wrote the song down. And Moses taught it to the Israelites.

Solomon, you had a vineyard in Baal Hamon. You rented your vineyard to others. They had to pay 25 pounds of silver for its fruit.But I can give my own vineyard to anyone I want to. So I give my 25 pounds of silver to you, Solomon. Give 5 pounds to those who take care of its fruit.”

My heart is full of beautiful words as I say my poem for the king. My tongue is like the pen of a skillful writer.

“ I slept, but my heart was awake. Listen! The one who loves me is knocking. He says,‘ My sister, I love you. Open up so I can come in. You are my dove. You are perfect in every way. My head is soaked with dew. The night air has made my hair wet.’

His mouth is very sweet. Everything about him is delightful. That’s what the one who loves me is like. That’s what my friend is like, women of Jerusalem.”

I belong to my love, and he belongs to me. He’s eating among the lilies.”
