Ezekiel 19:10-14
New American Standard Bible
10 Your mother was (A)like a vine in your [a]vineyard,
Planted by the waters;
It was fruitful and thick with branches
Because of abundant waters.
11 And it had [b](B)strong stems fit for scepters of rulers,
And its (C)height was raised above the clouds
So that it was seen in its height with the mass of its branches.
12 But it was (D)uprooted in fury;
It was (E)thrown down to the ground;
And the (F)east wind dried up its fruit.
[c]Its (G)strong stem [d]was torn out
So that [e]it withered;
The fire consumed it.
13 And now it is planted in the (H)wilderness,
In a dry and thirsty land.
14 And (I)fire has gone out from its stem;
It has consumed its shoots and fruit,
So that there is no [f]strong stem in it,
A scepter to rule.’”
This is a song of mourning, and has become a song of mourning.

Ezekiel 19:10-14
New King James Version
10 ‘Your mother was (A)like a vine in your [a]bloodline,
Planted by the waters,
(B)Fruitful and full of branches
Because of many waters.
11 She had strong branches for scepters of rulers.
(C)She towered in stature above the thick branches,
And was seen in her height amid the [b]dense foliage.
12 But she was (D)plucked up in fury,
She was cast down to the ground,
And the (E)east wind dried her fruit.
Her strong branches were broken and withered;
The fire consumed them.
13 And now she is planted in the wilderness,
In a dry and thirsty land.
14 (F)Fire has come out from a rod of her branches
And devoured her fruit,
So that she has no strong branch—a scepter for ruling.’ ”
(G)This is a lamentation, and has become a lamentation.
