Ezekiel 17:1-3

New International Reader's Version

Two Eagles and a Vine

17 A message from the Lord came to me. The Lord said, ² “Son of man, tell the people of Israel a story about their kings. Let them know what will happen to them. ³ Tell them, ‘The Lord and King says, “A great eagle came to the city of ‘Lebanon.’ It had powerful wings and a lot of long feathers. The feathers were colorful and beautiful. The eagle landed in the top of a cedar tree.
