Ezekiel 17:10; Ezekiel 19:12; Hosea 13:15

10 Behold, it is planted; will it thrive? oWill it not utterly wither when the east wind strikes itwither away on the bed where it sprouted?


12  But the vine was plucked up in fury,

cast down to the ground;

lthe east wind dried up its fruit;

they were stripped off and withered.

As for its strong stem,

fire consumed it.


15  Though fhe may flourish among his brothers,

gthe east wind, the wind of the Lord, shall come,

rising from the wilderness,

hand his fountain shall dry up;

his spring shall be parched;

it shall strip ihis treasury

of every precious thing.
