And spread their net over him;
bHe was trapped in their pit.
And brought him to the king of Babylon;
They brought him in nets,
That his voice should no longer be heard on bthe mountains of Israel.
Planted by the waters,
bFruitful and full of branches
Because of many waters.
aShe towered in stature above the thick branches,
And was seen in her height amid the1 dense foliage.
She was cast down to the ground,
And the beast wind dried her fruit.
Her strong branches were broken and withered;
The fire consumed them.
And devoured her fruit,
So that she has no strong branch— a scepter for ruling.’ ” bThis is a lamentation, and has become a lamentation.
