With hooks (A)they put him in a cage[a]
    and (B)brought him to the king of Babylon;
    they brought him into custody,
that his voice should no more be heard
    on (C)the mountains of Israel.

10 Your mother was (D)like a vine in a vineyard[b]
    planted by the water,
(E)fruitful and full of branches
    (F)by reason of abundant water.
11 Its strong stems became
    rulers' scepters;
it towered aloft
    among the thick boughs;[c]
it was seen in its height
    with the mass of its branches.
