12. But it was uprooted in furyand thrown to the ground.The east wind made it shrivel,it was stripped of its fruit;its strong branches witheredand fire consumed them.
13. Now it is planted in the desert,in a dry and thirsty land.
14. Fire spread from one of its main branchesand consumed its fruit.No strong branch is left on itfit for a ruler’s sceptre.”‘This is a lament and is to be used as a lament.’
