-
|Ezequiel 17:1| Now the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
-
|Ezequiel 17:2| "Son of man, ask a riddle and tell a1 parable to the house of Israel,
-
|Ezequiel 17:3| saying, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "A great eagle (Nebuchadnezzar) with great wings, long pinions and a rich plumage of many colors came to Lebanon (Jerusalem) and took away the top of the cedar (Judah).
-
|Ezequiel 17:4| He broke off the topmost of its young twigs (young King Jehoiachin) and carried it to a land of traders (Babylonia); he set it in a city of merchants (Babylon).
-
|Ezequiel 17:5| He also took some of the seed of the land (2 Zedekiah, of the royal family) and planted it in fertile soil and a fruitful field; he placed it beside abundant waters and set it like a willow tree.
-
|Ezequiel 17:6| Then it sprouted and grew and became a low, spreading vine whose branches turned[in submission] toward him, but its roots remained under it. So it became a vine and yielded shoots and sent out branches.
-
|Ezequiel 17:7| "There was[also] another great3 eagle with great wings and many feathers; and behold, this vine (Zedekiah) bent its roots toward him and sent out its branches toward him, away from the beds where it was planted, for him to water.
-
|Ezequiel 17:8| It was planted in good soil where water was plentiful for it to produce leaves and branches and to bear fruit, so that it might become a splendid vine."'
-
|Ezequiel 17:9| Thus says the Lord GOD, 'Ask, "Will it thrive? Will he (Nebuchadnezzar) not uproot it and strip off its fruit so that all its sprouting leaves will wither? It will not take a strong arm or many people to uproot it[ending Israel's national existence] .
-
|Ezequiel 17:10| Though it is planted, will it thrive and grow? Will it not completely wither when the east wind touches it? It will wither in the beds where it grew."'"
