我为我葡萄园所做之外，还有什么可做的呢？我指望结好葡萄，怎么倒结了野葡萄呢？

「耶路撒冷啊！耶路撒冷啊！你常殺害先知，又用石頭打死派到你那裡的使者。我多次想要招聚你的兒女，像母雞將小雞聚集在翅膀底下，可是你們卻不肯。

「我的子民啊，我做了什麼對不起你們的事？我哪裡令你們厭煩？回答我！我曾帶領你們離開埃及，把你們從受奴役之地救贖出來，又差遣摩西、亞倫和米利暗引領你們。

風箱猛力吹火，鉛也會熔掉；但他們被煉了又煉，終是徒然，因為他們的邪惡仍未除去。他們被稱為廢棄的銀渣，因為耶和華已丟棄他們。」

「你們這些頑固不化、耳不聽心不悔的人，經常抗拒聖靈，所作所為和你們的祖先如出一轍！哪一位先知沒有被你們祖先迫害？那些預言義者——彌賽亞要來的人也被你們的祖先殺害。如今你們竟出賣了那位公義者，殺害了祂！你們接受了上帝藉天使所傳的律法，竟不遵守！」眾人聽了這番話，怒火中燒，咬牙切齒。司提凡卻被聖靈充滿，定睛望天，看見上帝的榮耀和站在上帝右邊的耶穌。司提凡說：「看啊！我看見天開了，人子站在上帝的右邊。」眾人大喊大叫，捂著耳朵，蜂擁而上，把司提凡拉到城外，用石頭打他。指控他的人把他們的衣服交給一個名叫掃羅的青年看管。在亂石擊打之下，司提凡呼求說：「主耶穌啊，接收我的靈魂吧！」然後跪下高聲說：「主啊，不要追究他們的罪！」說完後，就斷氣了。

耶和華說：「你們的祖先在我身上找到什麼過錯，以致他們遠離我，去追隨虛妄的神明，使自己變得虛妄呢？

我責打你們的兒女，卻是徒勞，因為他們不受管教。你們殺害你們的先知，殘暴如獅子。這世代的人啊，要留心聽耶和華的話。對以色列人來說，難道我是曠野，是幽暗之地嗎？為什麼我的子民竟說，『我們可以四處遊蕩，不再追隨你』？

你們為什麼一再叛逆？你們還要受責打嗎？你們已經頭破血流，身心疲憊。

耶路撒冷啊，淫蕩使你污穢不堪，我要潔淨你，你卻不願被潔淨。所以，除非我向你傾盡一切憤怒，否則你的污穢將不能清除。

所有祭司長和民眾也都仿效外族人的一切可憎行徑，犯了大罪，玷污了耶和華在耶路撒冷使之聖潔的殿。他們祖先的上帝耶和華因為憐愛祂的子民和祂的居所，就不斷派使者來勸告他們。他們卻嘲弄耶和華上帝的使者，藐視祂的話，嘲笑祂的先知，以致祂的憤怒臨到祂的子民身上，無可挽救。
