5
"He also took some of the seed of the land and planted it in fertile soil. He placed it beside abundant waters ; he set it like a willow.
6
"Then it sprouted and became a low, spreading vine with its branches turned toward him, but its roots remained under it. So it became a vine and yielded shoots and sent out branches.
