Ezekiel 17:5

Took; chose out one to be king instead of Jehoiachin. Of the seed of the land; a native, and, which is more, one of the royal family, Mattaniah, whom he called Zedekiah. Planted it; settled him on the throne of Judah. A fruitful field; a field fit for such a design, in the land of Judea. The prophet goeth on in his allusion, and explains what he meant, compares this new-made king to a willow, which grows no where so well as in a wet soil, and on banks of great waters.
