17 : 1 The word of theLordcame to me:
|
|
17 : 2 Son of man,propound a riddle, and speak a parable to the house of Israel;
|
|
17 : 3 say, Thus says the LordGod:A great eaglewith great wings and long pinions,rich in plumage of many colors, cameto Lebanonand took the top of the cedar.
|
|
17 : 4 He broke off the topmost of its young twigs and carried it to a land of trade and set it in a city of merchants.
|
|
17 : 5 Then he took of the seed of the landand planted it in fertile soil.He placed it beside abundant waters.He set it like a willow twig,
|
|
17 : 6 and it sprouted and became alowspreading vine, and its branches turned toward him, and its roots remained where it stood. So it became a vine and produced branches and put out boughs.
|
|
17 : 7 And there was another great eagle with great wings and much plumage,and behold, this vine bent its roots toward him and shot forth its branches toward him fromthe bed where it was planted, that he might water it.
|
|
17 : 8 It had been planted on good soil by abundant waters, that it might produce branches and bear fruit and become a noble vine.
|
|
17 : 9 Say, Thus says the LordGod:Will it thrive? Will he not pull up its roots and cut off its fruit, so that it withers, so that all its fresh sprouting leaves wither? It will not take a strong arm or many people to pull it from its roots.
|
|
17 : 10 Behold, it is planted; will it thrive?Will it not utterly wither when the east wind strikes it&emdash;wither away on the bed where it sprouted?
|
|
17 : 11 Then the word of theLordcame to me:
|
|
17 : 12 Say now tothe rebellious house,Do you not know what these things mean? Tell them, behold,the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and took her king and her princes and brought them to him to Babylon.
|
|
17 : 13 And he took one of the royal offspringand made a covenant with him,putting him under oath (the chief men of the land he had taken away),
|
|
17 : 14 that the kingdom might be humble and not lift itself up, and keep his covenant that it might stand.
|
|
17 : 15 But he rebelled against him by sending his ambassadorsto Egypt, that they might give him horses and a large army.Will he thrive? Can one escape who does such things? Can hebreak the covenant and yet escape?
|
|
17 : 16 As I live, declares the LordGod, surelyin the place where the king dwellswho made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant with him he broke, in Babylon he shall die.
|
|
17 : 17 Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company will not help him in war,when mounds are cast up and siege walls built to cut off many lives.
|
|
17 : 18 He despised the oath in breaking the covenant, and behold, he gave his hand and did all these things; he shall not escape.
|
|
17 : 19 Therefore thus says the LordGod: As I live, surely it is my oath that he despised, and my covenant that he broke. I will return it upon his head.
|
|
17 : 20 I will spread my net over him, and he shall be taken in my snare, and I will bring him to Babylonand enter into judgment with him therefor the treachery he has committed against me.
|
|
17 : 21 And all the pickof his troops shall fall by the sword,and the survivors shall be scattered to every wind, and you shall know thatI am theLord; I have spoken.
|
|
17 : 22 Thus says the LordGod:I myself will take a sprig from the lofty top of the cedar and will set it out.I will break off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one, andI myself will plant it on a high and lofty mountain.
|
|
17 : 23 On the mountain height of Israel will I plant it, that it may bear branches and produce fruit and become a noble cedar.And under it will dwell every kind of bird; in the shade of its branches birds of every sort will nest.
|
|
17 : 24 And all the trees of the field shall know that I am theLord;I bring low the high tree, and make high the low tree, dry upthe green tree, and makethe dry tree flourish.I am theLord; I have spoken, and I will do it.
