Ezekiel 17:4-6

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁴ he cropped off the principal shoot and carried it into a land of markets; he set it in the city of the merchants.

⁵ He also took 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.

⁶ And it grew and became a vine of many branches, low of stature, whose branches looked at him, and its roots were under him: so it became a vine and brought forth branches and shot forth sprigs.
