17:1 The two eagles and the vine

17Then Yahweh gave me another message: 2“Humanity’s child, present a riddle and speak a parable to the Israeli people. 3Tell them, ‘The master Yahweh says this: A large eagle with large wings full of multi-coloured feathers, and long pinions, went to Lebanon and grabbed hold of the top of a cedar tree. 4He broke the top shoot of the tree off, and took it to Canaan where he placed it in a city full of merchants. 5He also took some of the seed of the land and planted it in fertile soil, beside a large body of water where a willow might grow. 6Then the seed sprouted and became a spreading vine low to the ground. Its branches turned toward him, and its roots grew down below, so it became a vine and produced branches and sent out shoots.

7But there was another large eagle with large wings and many feathers. Oh wow, that vine turned its roots toward this eagle, and it spread out its branches toward the eagle from the place it had been planted so it might get watered. 8It had been planted in good soil beside a large body of water so it would grow branches and produce fruit, to become a magnificent vine.’

9Ask the people: ‘The master Yahweh wants to know if it will prosper? Won’t it be uprooted and stripped of its fruit so that it withers, and all its fresh growth will dry out? You wouldn’t have to be very strong or get lots of people to help to pull it out by its roots. 10So listen. After it had been planted, would it thrive? Wouldn’t it wither up when the eastern wind touches it? Yes, it would wither right up in the garden plot where it sprouted.’ ”

17and_ the_word_of _he/it_was of_YHWH to_me to_say.
2Oh_son_of humankind ask_a_riddle a_riddle and_speak a_parable concerning the_house_of Yisrāʼēl/(Israel).
3And_say thus he_says my_master YHWH the_eagle the_great (the)_great_of the_wings (the)_long_of the_feathers full the_plumage which to_him/it the_many_colours it_came to the_Ləⱱānōn and_he/it_took DOM the_treetop_of the_cedar.
4DOM the_top_of shoot_of_its it_plucked_off and_brought_it to a_land_of merchant[s] in/on/at/with_city_of traders set_it.
5And_he/it_took some_of_seed_of the_earth/land and_placed_it in/on/at/with_soil_of seed a_shoot at waters many a_willow set_it.
6And_sprouted and_he/it_was as_vine overhanging low_of stature to_turned branches_of_its to_him/it and_roots_of_its under_it they_were and_it_became as_vine and_produced shoots and_sent_out boughs.
7And_he/it_was an_eagle one great great_of wings and_much_of plumage and_see/lo/see the_vine the_this it_bent roots_of_its on/upon/above_him/it and_branches_of_its it_sent_out for_him/it to_water DOM_it from_bed_of planted_of_it.
8To a_field good to waters many it was_planted for_doing branch[es] and_to_bear fruit to_be as_vine_of splendour.
9say thus my_master he_says YHWH will_it_prosper am_not DOM roots_of_its will_it_pull_up and_DOM fruit_of_its will_it_strip_off and_withers all_of the_fresh_things_of leaves_of_its it_will_wither and_not in/on/at/with_strength great and_in/on/at/with_people numerous to_pull DOM_it from_roots_of_its.
10And_see/lo/see it_is_planted thrive am_not when_strikes in/on/at/with_it the_wind_of the_east will_it_wither completely_(wither) on the_beds_of where_grew_of_it it_will_wither.
