Ezekiel 19:10-12

International Children’s Bible

¹⁰ “‘Your mother was like a vine in your vineyard.
    It was 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.
    They were good enough for a king’s scepter.
The vine became tall
    among the thick branches.
And it was seen because it was tall
    with many branches.
¹² But it was pulled up by its roots in anger.
    It was thrown down to the ground.
The east wind dried it up.
    Its fruit was torn off.
Its strong branches were broken off.
    They were burned up.
