Ezekiel 19:10-12

Expanded Bible

¹⁰ “‘Your mother was like a vine in your vineyard,
    planted beside the water.
The vine had many branches and gave much fruit,
    because there was plenty of water.
¹¹ The vine had strong ·branches [boughs],
    good enough for a king’s scepter.
The vine became tall
    among the thick branches.
And it ·was seen [stood out], because it was tall
    with many branches.
¹² But it was pulled up by its roots in anger
    and thrown down to the ground.
The east wind dried it up.
    Its fruit was ·torn [stripped] off.
Its strong branches were broken off
    and burned up.
