EZEKIEL 19:10 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“Thy mother is like a vine in thy blood, planted by the waters: she was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.”
The lamentation shifts to address the mother lioness herself, describing Israel as a vine in blood, transplanted beside water with abundant branches and stems. The vine metaphor replaces the lioness imagery, emphasizing fertility and productive growth in favorable conditions. The abundance of branches and the river-side location suggest Israel's former prosperity and covenant blessing.
