So it starts out talking about how the Lord will be glorified and everyone will be cleansed. Then it moves into the vineyard being destroyed...I am not sure if this is an analogy for something bigger or they really mean a vineyard. It seems that since they are talking about the vineyard of the Lord that it might be the people are destroyed for their wickedness.
This one talks about the value of wisdom and what we can gain by asking God for wisdom. Again, we have to remember that it is not freely given we must ask him for it. Once granted we are then led in the right direction if we choose to follow.

I think you got that right about the vineyard of the Lord. I think it's an analogy for the people and the Lord being the vintner. It sounds like those that remain in the Lord will be covered by his cloud and those that continue sinning will be destroyed like the vineyard. That we all stem from God and when we don't stay connected, we dry up and become something else.
In my bible this is titled "Moral Benefits of Wisdom". I understand it to say that if we ask for wisdom and keep to it then it will protect us and save us from wicked ways.
