Ezekiel 19:13

Lament For The Leaders Of Israel

¹² ‘But it was plucked up in fury;
It was cast down to the ground;
And the east wind dried up its fruit.
Its strong branch was torn off
So that it withered;
The fire consumed it.
¹³ ‘And now it is planted in the wilderness,
In a dry and thirsty land.
¹⁴ ‘And fire has gone out from its branch;
It has consumed its shoots and fruit,
So that there is not in it a strong branch,
A scepter to rule.’”
This is a lamentation, and has become a lamentation.
