Ezekiel 17:5-7

New King James Version

⁵ Then he took some of the seed of the land
And planted it in ^(A)a fertile field;
He placed it by abundant waters
And set it ^(B)like a willow tree.
⁶ And it grew and became a spreading vine ^(C)of low stature;
Its branches turned toward him,
But its roots were under it.
So it became a vine,
Brought forth branches,
And put forth shoots.
