Ezekiel 19:9-11

New Life Version

⁹ They put him in a prison with chains and brought him to the king of Babylon. They put him in prison so that his voice would never be heard again on the mountains of Israel.

¹⁰ Your mother was like a vine in your grape-field, planted by the water. It gave much fruit and was full of branches because there was much water. ¹¹ Its branches were strong enough to be made into sticks held by rulers to show their power. It grew as high as the clouds. Everyone saw how high it was and that it had many branches.
