Ezekiel 17:22-24
Holman Christian Standard Bible
22 This is what the Lord God says:
I will take a sprig
from the lofty top of the cedar and plant it.(A)
I will pluck a tender sprig
from its topmost shoots,
and I will plant it
on a high towering mountain.
23 I will plant it on Israel’s high mountain(B)
so that it may bear branches, produce fruit,
and become a majestic cedar.
Birds of every kind will nest under it,(C)
taking shelter in the shade of its branches.
24 Then all the trees of the field will know
that I am Yahweh.
I bring down the tall tree,
and make the low tree tall.(D)
I cause the green tree to wither
and make the withered tree thrive.(E)
I, Yahweh, have spoken
and I will do it.(F)
Ezekiel 17:22-24
New International Version
22 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I myself will take a shoot(A) from the very top of a cedar and plant it; I will break off a tender sprig from its topmost shoots and plant it on a high and lofty mountain.(B) 23 On the mountain heights(C) of Israel I will plant it; it will produce branches and bear fruit(D) and become a splendid cedar. Birds of every kind will nest in it; they will find shelter in the shade of its branches.(E) 24 All the trees of the forest(F) will know that I the Lord bring down(G) the tall tree and make the low tree grow tall. I dry up the green tree and make the dry tree flourish.(H)
“‘I the Lord have spoken, and I will do it.(I)’”
