Ezekiel 17:5-7
English Standard Version Anglicised
5 Then he took from the seed of the land (A)and planted it in fertile soil.[a] He placed it beside abundant waters. (B)He set it like a willow twig, 6 and it sprouted and became a (C)low (D)spreading vine, and its branches turned towards him, and its roots remained where it stood. So it became a vine and produced branches and put out boughs.
7 (E)“And there was another great eagle with great wings and much plumage, (F)and behold, this vine bent its roots towards him and shot forth its branches towards him from (G)the bed where it was planted, that he might water it.

New International Version
5 “‘He took one of the seedlings of the land and put it in fertile soil. He planted it like a willow by abundant water,(A) 6 and it sprouted and became a low, spreading vine. Its branches(B) turned toward him, but its roots remained under it. So it became a vine and produced branches and put out leafy boughs.(C)
7 “‘But there was another great eagle with powerful wings and full plumage. The vine now sent out its roots toward him from the plot where it was planted and stretched out its branches to him for water.(D)
