26:017:010 Yea, behold, being planted, shall it prosper? shall it not
           utterly wither, when the east wind toucheth it? it shall
           wither in the furrows where it grew.

26:017:011 Moreover the word of the lord came unto me, saying,

26:017:012 Say now to the rebellious house, Know ye not what these things
           mean? tell them, Behold, the king of Babylon is come to
           Jerusalem, and hath taken the king thereof, and the princes
           thereof, and led them with him to Babylon;

26:017:013 And hath taken of the king’s seed, and made a covenant with
           him, and hath taken an oath of him:  he hath also taken the
           mighty of the land: 

26:017:014 That the kingdom might be base, that it might not lift itself
           up, but that by keeping of his covenant it might stand.

26:017:015 But he rebelled against him in sending his ambassadors into
           Egypt, that they might give him horses and much people.  Shall
           he prosper? shall he escape that doeth such things? or shall
           he break the covenant, and be delivered?

26:017:016 As I live, saith the Lord god, surely in the place where the
           king dwelleth that made him king, whose oath he despised, and
           whose covenant he brake, even with him in the midst of Babylon
           he shall die.

26:017:017 Neither shall Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company
           make for him in the war, by casting up mounts, and building
           forts, to cut off many persons: 

26:017:018 Seeing he despised the oath by breaking the covenant, when,
           lo, he had given his hand, and hath done all these things, he
           shall not escape.

26:017:019 Therefore thus saith the Lord god; As I live, surely mine oath
           that he hath despised, and my covenant that he hath broken,
           even it will I recompense upon his own head.

26:017:020 And I will spread my net upon him, and he shall be taken in my
           snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will plead with
           him there for his trespass that he hath trespassed against me.

26:017:021 And all his fugitives with all his bands shall fall by the
           sword, and they that remain shall be scattered toward all
           winds:  and ye shall know that I the lord have spoken it.

26:017:022 Thus saith the Lord god; I will also take of the highest
           branch of the high cedar, and will set it; I will crop off
           from the top of his young twigs a tender one, and will plant
           it upon an high mountain and eminent: 

26:017:023 In the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it:  and
           it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a goodly
           cedar:  and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing; in the
           shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell.
