@ 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.
