Ezekiel 17:5-8

⁵He took some of the seed of the land

and planted it in fertile soil;

he placed it by abundant waters

and set it out like a willow.

⁶It sprouted and became a spreading vine,

low in height, with branches turned toward him;

yet its roots remained where it stood.

So it became a vine and yielded branches

and sent out shoots.

⁷But there was another great eagle

with great wings and many feathers.

And behold, this vine bent its roots toward him.

It stretched out its branches to him from its planting bed,

so that he might water it.

⁸It had been planted in good soil

by abundant waters

in order to yield branches and bear fruit

and become a splendid vine.’
