Lament For The Leaders Of Israel
10 "'Your mother was like a vine in your vineyard, planted by water. It was fruitful and full of branches because it was well-watered. 11 Its boughs were strong, fit for rulers' scepters; it reached up into the clouds. It stood out because of its height and its many branches. 12 But it was plucked up in anger; it was thrown down to the ground. The east wind dried up its fruit; its strong branches broke off and withered -- a fire consumed them.
