He cropped off the top of his young twigs, and carried it into a land of traffick; he set it in a city of merchants.(Ezekiel 17:4)
He took also of the seed of the land, and planted it in a fruitful field; he placed it by great waters, and set it as a willow tree.(Ezekiel 17:5)
And it grew, and became a spreading vine of low stature, whose branches turned toward him, and the roots thereof were under him: so it became a vine, and brought forth branches, and shot forth sprigs.
There was also another great eagle with great wings and many feathers: and, behold, this vine did bend her roots toward him, and shot forth her branches toward him, that he might water it by the furrows of her plantation.(Ezekiel 17:7)
It was planted in a good soil by great waters, that it might bring forth branches, and that it might bear fruit, that it might be a goodly vine.(Ezekiel 17:8)
Say thou, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Shall it prosper? shall he not pull up the roots thereof, and cut off the fruit thereof, that it wither? it shall wither in all the leaves of her spring, even without great power or many people to pluck it up by the roots thereof.(Ezekiel 17:9)
