Ezekiel 17:6-8

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁶ And it sprung up and grew into a spreading vine of low stature, and the branches thereof looked towards him: and the roots thereof were under him. So it became a vine, and grew into branches, and shot forth sprigs.

⁷ And there was another large eagle, with great wings, and many feathers: and behold this vine, bending as it were her roots towards him, stretched forth her branches to him, that he might water it by the furrows of her plantation.

⁸ It was planted in a good ground upon many waters, that it might bring forth branches, and bear fruit, that it might become a large vine.
