Ezekiel 17:6-8

6and it sprouted and became a low, spreading vine. Its branches turned toward him, but its roots remained under it. So it became a vine and produced branches and put out leafy boughs.

7“ ‘But there was another great eagle with powerful wings and full plumage. The vine now sent out its roots toward him from the plot where it was planted and stretched out its branches to him for water.

8It had been planted in good soil by abundant water so that it would produce branches, bear fruit and become a splendid vine.’
