(A)They put him in a [a]wooden collar with hooks
And (B)brought him to the king of Babylon;
They brought him in hunting nets
So that his voice would no longer be heard
On the mountains of Israel.
10 Your mother was (C)like a vine in your [b]vineyard,
Planted by the waters;
It was fruitful and thick with branches
Because of abundant waters.
11 And it had [c](D)strong stems fit for scepters of rulers,
And its (E)height was raised above the clouds
So that it was seen in its height with the mass of its branches.
