Ezekiel 17:7 in Context — Ezekiel 17

5 Et il prit un rejeton du pays, et le plaça dans un sol fertile; il le mit près d’une eau abondante, et le planta comme un saule.

6 Ce rejeton poussa, et devint un cep de vigne étendu, mais de peu d’élévation; ses rameaux étaient tournés vers l’aigle, et ses racines étaient sous lui; il devint un cep de vigne, donna des jets, et produisit des branches.

7 Il y avait un autre aigle, grand, aux longues ailes, au plumage épais. Et voici, du parterre où elle était plantée, cette vigne étendit avec avidité ses racines de son côté et dirigea ses rameaux vers lui, afin qu’il l’arrosât.

8 Elle était plantée dans un bon terrain, près d’une eau abondante, de manière à produire des branches et à porter du fruit, à devenir une vigne magnifique.

9 Dis: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Prospérera-t-elle? Le premier aigle n’arrachera-t-il pas ses racines, n’enlèvera-t-il pas son fruit, afin qu’elle se dessèche, afin que toutes les feuilles qu’elle a poussées se dessèchent? Et il ne faudra ni beaucoup de force ni un peuple nombreux pour la séparer de ses racines.
