A Lament for the Princes of Israel
13Now it is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty land. 14Fire has gone out from its main branch and devoured its fruit; on it no strong branch remains fit for a ruler’s scepter.’ This is a lament and shall be used as a lament.”

This is a lament and shall be used as a lament.”

A fire started to burn its stem, and then started to burn the branches
and burned all the grapes. Now not even one strong branch remains;
they will never become scepters for a king.’ That funeral song must be sung very sadly.”

There is no strong branch on it, no scepter to rule.' This is a lamentation and will be sung as a lamentation.”
