Ezekiel 17:5-10
5He also tookH3947 someH4480 of the seedH2233 of the landH776 and plantedH5414 it in 12fertileH2233 soilH7704. He 3placedH3947 it besideH5921 abundantH7227 watersH4325; he setH7760 it like a 4willowH6851. 6Then it sproutedH6779 and becameH1961 a lowH8217, spreadingH5628 vineH1612 with its branchesH1808 turnedH6437 towardH413 him, but its rootsH8328 remainedH1961 underH8478 it. So it becameH1961 a vineH1612 and yieldedH6213 shootsH909 and sentH7971 out branchesH6288.
7“But there was 5anotherH259 greatH1419 eagleH5404 with greatH1419 wingsH3671 and muchH7227 plumageH5133; and beholdH2009, thisH2088 vineH1612 bentH3719 its rootsH8328 towardH5921 him and sentH7971 out its branchesH1808 toward him from the bedsH6170 whereH4302 it was 6plantedH4302, that he might waterH8248 it. 8It was plantedH8362 in goodH2896 7soilH7704 besideH413 abundantH7227 watersH4325, that it might yieldH6213 branchesH6057 and bearH5375 fruitH6529 and becomeH1961 a splendidH155 vineH1612.”’ 9SayH559, ‘ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH136 GodH3068, “Will it thriveH6743? Will he not pullH5423 up its rootsH8328 and cutH7082 offH7082 its fruitH6529, so that it withersH3001--so that allH3605 its sproutingH6780 leavesH2964 witherH3001? And neitherH3808 by greatH1419 8strengthH2220 norH3808 by manyH7227 peopleH5971 can it be raisedH5375 from its rootsH8328 again. 10BeholdH2009, though it is plantedH8362, will it thriveH6743? Will it not 9completelyH3001 witherH3001 as soon as the eastH6921 windH7307 strikesH5060 it--witherH3001 on the bedsH6170 whereH6780 it grewH6780?”’”
