Isaiah 5:2
And he fenced it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also made a winepress therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.
KJV
Et sepivit eam, et lapides elegit ex illa, et plantavit eam electam ; et ædificavit turrim in medio ejus, et torcular exstruxit in ea ; et exspectavit ut faceret uvas, et fecit labruscas.
Vulgate

LXX
and he digged it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also hewed out a winepress therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.
