Verse 9 is found in chapter 17 of Ezekiel. The parable of the two great eagles and the vine describes political events through natural images. One power plants a vine that depends on another authority, but the vine seeks a second eagle. The symbolism represents the breaking of a political dependency and the consequences of trusting alternative alliances.

Français · LSG Dis: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l'Eternel: Prospérera-t-elle? Le premier aigle n'arrachera-t-il pas ses racines, n'enlèvera-t-il pas son fruit, afin qu'elle se dessèche, afin que toutes les feuilles qu'elle a poussées se dessèchent? Et il ne faudra ni beaucoup de force ni un peuple nombreux pour la séparer de ses racines.
