26:016:058 Thou hast borne thy lewdness and thine abominations, saith the
           lord.

26:016:059 For thus saith the Lord god; I will even deal with thee as
           thou hast done, which hast despised the oath in breaking the
           covenant.

26:016:060 Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in the days
           of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting
           covenant.

26:016:061 Then thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when thou
           shalt receive thy sisters, thine elder and thy younger:  and I
           will give them unto thee for daughters, but not by thy
           covenant.

26:016:062 And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt
           know that I am the lord

26:016:063 That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and never open
           thy mouth any more because of thy shame, when I am pacified
           toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord god.

26:017:001 And the word of the lord came unto me, saying,

26:017:002 Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable unto the
           house of Israel;

26:017:003 And say, Thus saith the Lord god; A great eagle with great
           wings, longwinged, full of feathers, which had divers colours,
           came unto Lebanon, and took the highest branch of the cedar: 

26:017:004 He cropped off the top of his young twigs, and carried it into
           a land of traffick; he set it in a city of merchants.

26:017:005 He took also of the seed of the land, and planted it in a
           fruitful field; he placed it by great waters, and set it as a
           willow tree.

26:017:006 And it grew, and became a spreading vine of low stature, whose
           branches turned toward him, and the roots thereof were under
           him:  so it became a vine, and brought forth branches, and shot
           forth sprigs.

26:017:007 There was also another great eagle with great wings and many
           feathers:  and, behold, this vine did bend her roots toward
           him, and shot forth her branches toward him, that he might
           water it by the furrows of her plantation.

26:017:008 It was planted in a good soil by great waters, that it might
           bring forth branches, and that it might bear fruit, that it
           might be a goodly vine.

26:017:009 Say thou, Thus saith the Lord god; Shall it prosper? shall he
           not pull up the roots thereof, and cut off the fruit thereof,
           that it wither? it shall wither in all the leaves of her
           spring, even without great power or many people to pluck it up
           by the roots thereof.
