Ezekiel 17:5 in Context — Ezekiel 17

3 E dize: Assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Uma grande águia, de grandes asas e de comprida plumagem, cheia de penas de várias cores, veio ao Líbano, e tomou o mais alto ramo de um cedro.

4 Arrancou o topo de seus renovos, e o trouxe à terra de comércio; na cidade de mercadores ela o pôs.

5 E tomou da semente da terra, e a lançou em um campo fértil; tomando-a, plantou-a junto a grandes águas, como [se fosse] um salgueiro.

6 E brotou, e tornou-se uma videira larga, [porém] de baixa estatura; seus ramos olhavam para ela, e suas raízes estavam debaixo dela; e tornou-se uma videira, que produzia ramos e brotava renovos.

7 E houve outra grande águia, de grandes asas e cheia de penas; e eis que esta videira juntou suas raízes para perto dela, e estendeu seus ramos para ela desde o lugar onde estava plantada, para que fosse regada.
