Ezekiel 17:4-6

21st Century King James Version

⁴ He cropped off the top of it young twigs and carried it into a land of traffic; he set it in a city of merchants.

⁵ 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.

⁶ 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.
