They led him away with hooks
to the land of Egypt.

Er verderbte ihre Paläste und verwüstete ihre Städte, daß das Land und was darin ist, vor der Stimme seines Brüllens sich entsetzte.
Then the armies of the nations attacked him,
surrounding him from every direction.
They threw a net over him
and captured him in their pit.

They held him in captivity,
so his voice could never again be heard
on the mountains of Israel.

planted by the water’s edge.
It had lush, green foliage
because of the abundant water.

Deine Mutter war wie ein Weinstock, gleich wie du am Wasser gepflanzt; und seine Frucht und Reben wuchsen von dem großen Wasser,

daß seine Reben so stark wurden, daß sie zu Herrenzeptern gut waren, und er ward hoch unter den Reben. Und da man sah, daß er so hoch war und viel Reben hatte,
But the vine was uprooted in fury
and thrown down to the ground.
The desert wind dried up its fruit
and tore off its strong branches,
so that it withered
and was destroyed by fire.

Now the vine is transplanted to the wilderness,
where the ground is hard and dry.
