Ezekiel 17:1-9

And the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_,
put forth
<02330> (8798)
a riddle
<02420>_,
and speak
<04911> (8798)
a parable
<04912>
unto the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_;
And say
<0559> (8804)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_;
A great
<01419>
eagle
<05404>
with great
<01419>
wings
<03671>_,
longwinged
<083> <0750>_,
full
<04392>
of feathers
<05133>_,
which had divers colours
<07553>_,
came
<0935> (8804)
unto Lebanon
<03844>_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
the highest branch
<06788>
of the cedar
<0730>_:
{divers...: Heb. embroidering}
He cropped off
<06998> (8804)
the top
<07218>
of his young twigs
<03242>_,
and carried
<0935> (8686)
it into a land
<0776>
of traffick
<03667>_;
he set
<07760> (8804)
it in a city
<05892>
of merchants
<07402> (8802)_.
He took
<03947> (8799)
also of the seed
<02233>
of the land
<0776>_,
and planted
<05414> (8799)
it in a fruitful
<02233>
field
<07704>_;
he placed
<03947> (8804)
[it] by great
<07227>
waters
<04325>_,
[and] set
<07760> (8804)
it [as] a willow tree
<06851>_.
{planted...: Heb. put it in a field of seed}
And it grew
<06779> (8799)_,
and became a spreading
<05628> (8802)
vine
<01612>
of low
<08217>
stature
<06967>_,
whose branches
<01808>
turned
<06437> (8800)
toward him, and the roots
<08328>
thereof were under him: so it became a vine
<01612>_,
and brought forth
<06213> (8799)
branches
<0905>_,
and shot
<07971> (8762)
forth sprigs
<06288>_.
There was also another
<0259>
great
<01419>
eagle
<05404>
with great
<01419>
wings
<03671>
and many
<07227>
feathers
<05133>_:
and, behold, this vine
<01612>
did bend
<03719> (8804)
her roots
<08328>
toward him, and shot forth
<07971> (8765)
her branches
<01808>
toward him, that he might water
<08248> (8687)
it by the furrows
<06170>
of her plantation
<04302>_.
It was planted
<08362> (8803)
in a good
<02896>
soil
<07704>
by great
<07227>
waters
<04325>_,
that it might bring forth
<06213> (8800)
branches
<06057>_,
and that it might bear
<05375> (8800)
fruit
<06529>_,
that it might be a goodly
<0155>
vine
<01612>_.
{soil: Heb. field}
Say
<0559> (8798)
thou, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_;
Shall it prosper
<06743> (8799)_?
shall he not pull up
<05423> (8762)
the roots
<08328>
thereof, and cut off
<07082> (8779)
the fruit
<06529>
thereof, that it wither
<03001> (8804)_?
it shall wither
<03001> (8799)
in all the leaves
<02964>
of her spring
<06780>_,
even without great
<01419>
power
<02220>
or many
<07227>
people
<05971>
to pluck it up
<05375> (8800)
by the roots
<08328>
thereof.
