@ And it came to pass in the
eleventh
H6240
year
, in the
third
month, in the
first
day of the
month
, that the
word
of the
LORD
came unto me,
saying
,
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:2
@
Son
of
man
,
speak
unto
Pharaoh
king
of
Egypt
, and to his
multitude
; Whom art thou
like
in thy
greatness
?
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:3
@ Behold, the
Assyrian
was a
cedar
in
Lebanon
with
fair
branches
, and with a
shadowing
shroud
, and of an
high
stature
; and his
top
was among the thick
boughs
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:4
@ The
waters
made him
great
, the
deep
set him up on
high
with her
rivers
running
round
about
his
plants
, and sent
out
her little
rivers
unto all the
trees
of the
field
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:5
@ Therefore his
height
was
exalted
above all the
trees
of the
field
, and his
boughs
were
multiplied
, and his
branches
became
long
because of the
multitude
of
waters
, when he shot
forth
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:6
@ All the
fowls
of
heaven
made their
nests
in his
boughs
c@, and under his
branches
did all the
beasts
of the
field
bring forth their
young
, and under his
shadow
dwelt
all
great
nations
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:7
@ Thus was he
fair
in his
greatness
, in the
length
of his
branches
: for his
root
was by
great
waters
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:8
@ The
cedars
in the
garden
of
God
could not
hide
him: the fir
trees
were not
like
his
boughs
c@, and the chesnut
trees
were not like his
branches
p@; nor any
tree
in the
garden
of
God
was
like
unto him in his
beauty
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:9
@ I have
made
him
fair
by the
multitude
of his
branches
: so that all the
trees
of
Eden
, that were in the
garden
of
God
,
envied
him.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:10
@ Therefore thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD
; Because thou hast lifted
up
thyself in
height
, and he hath shot
up
his
top
among the thick
boughs
, and his
heart
is lifted
up
in his
height
;
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:11
@ I have therefore
delivered
him into the
hand
of the mighty
one
of the
heathen
; he shall
surely
deal
with him: I have driven him
out
for his
wickedness
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:12
@ And
strangers
, the
terrible
of the
nations
, have cut him
off
, and have
left
him: upon the
mountains
and in all the
valleys
his
branches
are
fallen
, and his
boughs
are
broken
by all the
rivers
of the
land
; and all the
people
of the
earth
are gone
down
from his
shadow
, and have
left
him.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:13
@ Upon his
ruin
shall all the
fowls
of the
heaven
remain
, and all the
beasts
of the
field
shall be upon his
branches
p@:
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:14
@ To the end that none of all the
trees
by the
waters
exalt
themselves for their
height
, neither shoot
up
their
top
among the thick
boughs
, neither their
trees
stand
up
in their
height
, all that
drink
water
: for they are all
delivered
unto
death
, to the nether
parts
of the
earth
, in the
midst
of the
children
of
men
, with them that go
down
to the
pit
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:15
@ Thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD
; In the
day
when he went
down
to the
grave
I caused a
mourning
: I
covered
the
deep
for him, and I
restrained
the
floods
thereof, and the
great
waters
were
stayed
: and I caused
Lebanon
to
mourn
for him, and all the
trees
of the
field
fainted
for him.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:16
@ I made the
nations
to
shake
at the
sound
of his
fall
, when I cast him
down
to
hell
with them that
descend
into the
pit
: and all the
trees
of
Eden
, the
choice
and
best
of
Lebanon
, all that
drink
water
, shall be
comforted
in the nether
parts
of the
earth
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:17
@ They also went
down
into
hell
with him unto them that be
slain
with the
sword
; and they that were his
arm
, that
dwelt
under his
shadow
in the
midst
of the
heathen
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:31:18
@ To whom art thou thus
like
in
glory
and in
greatness
among the
trees
of
Eden
? yet shalt thou be brought
down
with the
trees
of
Eden
unto the nether
parts
of the
earth
: thou shalt
lie
in the
midst
of the
uncircumcised
with them that be
slain
by the
sword
. This is
Pharaoh
and all his
multitude
,
saith
the
Lord
GOD
.
