Ezekiel 17:21-23
Legacy Standard Bible
21 All the [a](A)choice men in all his troops will fall by the sword, and the remnant will be scattered to every wind; and you will know that I, Yahweh, have spoken.”
22 Thus says Lord Yahweh, “I will also take a sprig from the lofty top of the cedar and set it out; I will pluck from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one, and I will plant it on an (B)exalted and lofty mountain. 23 On the high mountain of Israel I will plant it, that it may lift up [b]boughs and yield fruit and become a majestic (C)cedar. And birds of every [c]kind will dwell under it; they will dwell in the shade of its [d]branches.
