Ezekiel 17:3-7

3and sayH559, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136: A greatH1419 eagleH5404 with greatH1419 wingsH3671 and longH750 pinionsH83, fullH4392 of feathersH5133, whichH834 had divers colours, cameH935 unto LebanonH3844, and tookH3947 the topH6788 of the cedarH730:

4he cropped offH6998 the topmostH7218 of the youngH3242 twigsH3242 thereof, and carriedH935 it intoH413 a landH776 of traffic; he setH7760 it in a cityH5892 of merchantsH7402.

5He tookH3947 also of the seedH2233 of the landH776, and plantedH5414 it in a fruitful soilH7704; he placedH5414 it besideH5921 manyH7227 watersH4325; he setH7760 it as a willowH6851 tree.

6And it grew, and becameH1961 a spreadingH5628 vineH1612 of lowH8217 statureH6967, whose branchesH1808 turnedH6437 towardH413 him, and the rootsH8328 thereof were underH8478 him: soH6213 it becameH1961 a vineH1612, and broughtH1961 forthH7971 branchesH1808, and shotH7971 forthH7971 sprigs.

7There was also anotherH259 greatH1419 eagleH5404 with greatH1419 wingsH3671 and manyH7227 feathersH5133: and, beholdH2009, this vineH1612 did bend itsH853 rootsH8328 towardH5921 him, and shotH7971 forthH7971 itsH853 branchesH1808 towardH5921 him, from the bedsH6170 of itsH853 plantation, that he might waterH8248 it.
