Ezekiel 17:8-10

Thomson(i) 8 which being in a good soil by much water grew luxuriantly, so as to blossom and bear fruit, and become a great vine. 9 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord, Shall it prosper? Shall not the roots of this tender shoot and its fruit be blasted? Yes; all its former shoots shall wither; so that it will not require a strong arm nor much people to pull it up by its roots. 10 Though behold it is luxuriant, shall it prosper; shall it not wither at the first touch of a blasting wind? Both it and its sprouting shoot shall be withered.
