Ezekiel 19:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 Thy [a]mother is like a vine in thy blood, planted by the waters: she brought forth fruit and branches by the abundant waters,
11 And she had strong rods for the scepters of them that bear rule, and her stature was exalted among the branches, and she appeared in her height with the multitude of her branches.
12 But she was plucked up in wrath: she was cast down to the ground, and the [b]East wind dried up her fruit: her branches were broken and withered: as for the rod of her strength, the fire consumed it.

Ezekiel 19:10-12
New International Version
10 “‘Your mother was like a vine in your vineyard[a](A)
planted by the water;(B)
it was fruitful and full of branches
because of abundant water.(C)
11 Its branches were strong,
fit for a ruler’s scepter.
It towered high
above the thick foliage,
conspicuous for its height
and for its many branches.(D)
12 But it was uprooted(E) in fury
and thrown to the ground.
The east wind(F) made it shrivel,
it was stripped of its fruit;
its strong branches withered
and fire consumed them.(G)
