11 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me,saying,

12 "Say now to the rebellious house:'Do you not know what these things mean?'Tell them,'Indeed the king of Babylon went to Jerusalem and took its king and princes,and led them with him to Babylon.

13 'And he took the king's offspring ,made a covenant with him,and put him under oath.He also took away the mighty land,

14 'That the kingdom might be brought low and not lift itself up,but that by keeping his covenant it might stand.

15  'But he reballed against him by sending his ambassador to Egypt,that they might give him the horses and many people.Will he prosper?Will he who does such things escape?Will he who does such things escape?Cn he break a covenant and still be delivered?

16 'As I live,'says the LORD GOD,'Surely in the place where the king dwells who made him king,whose oath he depised and whose covenant he broke - with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die

17 'Nor will Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company do anything in the war,when they heap up seige mound and build a wall to cut off many persons.

18 'Since he despised the oath by breaking the covenant and in fact  gave  his hand and still did all these things,he shall not escape.

19 Therefore thus says the LORD GOD:"As I live,surely My oath which he despised,and My covenant which he broke,I will recompense on his own head.

20"I will spread My net over him,and he shall be taken in My snare.I will bring him to Babylon and try him there for the treason which he committed against Me.

 21"All his figatives with all his troops shall fall by the sword,and those who remain shall be scattered to every wind;and you shall know that I ,the LORD,have spoken.

22 Thus says the LORD GOD:"I will take also one of the highest branches of the high cedar and set it out.I will crop off from the topmost of it out.I will crop off the topmost of its young twing a tender one,and wil plant it on a high and prominent mountain.

23 "On the mountain height of Isreal I will plant it;and it wil bring forth boughs,and bear fruit,and be a majestic cedar.Under it will dwell birdsof every sort;in the shadow of is branches they will dwell.

24"And all the treesof the field shall know that I ,the LORD,have brought down the high tree and exalted the low,dried up the green tree and made the dry tree fourish;I the LORD,have spoken and have done it."Ezekiel 17;11-24
