Ezekiel 17:22-24

New American Standard Bible 1995

²² Thus says the Lord God, “I will also take a sprig from the lofty top of the cedar and set it out; I will pluck from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one and I will plant it on a ^(A)high and lofty mountain. ²³ On the high mountain of Israel I will plant it, that it may bring forth boughs and bear fruit and become a stately ^(B)cedar. And birds of every ^[a]kind will ^[b]nest under it; they will ^[c]nest in the shade of its branches. ²⁴ All the ^(C)trees of the field will know that I am the Lord; I bring down the high tree, exalt the low tree, dry up the green tree and make the dry tree ^(D)flourish. I am the Lord; I have spoken, and I will perform it.”
