ylt @Ezekiel:31:1 @And it cometh to pass , in the eleventh year , in the third [month ], in the first of the month , hath a word of Jehovah been unto me , saying : ylt @Ezekiel:31:2 @'Son of man , say unto Pharaoh king of Egypt , and unto his multitude : To whom hast thou been like in thy greatness ? ylt @Ezekiel:31:3 @Lo , Asshur , a cedar in Lebanon , Fair in branch , and shading bough , and high in stature , And between thickets hath its foliage been . ylt @Ezekiel:31:4 @Waters have made it great , The deep hath exalted him with its flowings , Going round about its planting , And its conduits it hath sent forth unto all trees of the field . ylt @Ezekiel:31:5 @Therefore higher hath been his stature than all trees of the field , And multiplied are his boughs , and long are his branches , Because of many waters in his shooting forth , ylt @Ezekiel:31:6 @In his boughs made a nest hath every fowl of the heavens , And under his branches brought forth hath every beast of the field , And in his shade dwell do all great nations . ylt @Ezekiel:31:7 @And he is fair in his greatness , In the length of his thin shoots , For his root hath been by great waters . ylt @Ezekiel:31:8 @Cedars have not hid him in the garden of God , Firs have not been like unto his boughs , And chesnut-trees have not been as his branches , No tree in the garden of God hath been like unto him in his beauty , ylt @Ezekiel:31:9 @Fair I have made him in the multitude of his thin shoots , And envy him do all trees of Eden that [are ] in the garden of God . ylt @Ezekiel:31:10 @Therefore , thus said the Lord Jehovah : Because that thou hast been high in stature , And he yieldeth his foliage between thickets , And high is his heart in his haughtiness , ylt @Ezekiel:31:11 @I give him into the hand of a god of nations , He dealeth sorely with him , In his wickedness I have cast him out . ylt @Ezekiel:31:12 @And cut him off do strangers , The terrible of nations , and they leave him , On the mountains and in all valleys have his thin shoots fallen , And broken are his boughs at all streams of the land , And go down from his shade do all peoples of the land , and they leave him . ylt @Ezekiel:31:13 @On his ruin dwell do all fowls of the heavens , And on his boughs have been all the beasts of the field , ylt @Ezekiel:31:14 @In order that none of the trees of the waters May become haughty because of their stature , Nor give their foliage between thickets , Nor any drinking waters stand up unto them in their haughtiness , For all of them are given up to death , Unto the earth -- the lower part , In the midst of the sons of men , Unto those going down to the pit . ylt @Ezekiel:31:15 @Thus said the Lord Jehovah : In the day of his going down to sheol I have caused mourning , I have covered for him the deep , and diminish its flowings , And restrained are many waters , And I make Lebanon black for him , And all trees of the field have been covered for him . ylt @Ezekiel:31:16 @From the sound of his fall I have caused nations to shake , In My causing him to go down to sheol , With those going down to the pit , And comforted in the earth -- the lower part , are all trees of Eden , The choice and the good of Lebanon , All drinking waters . ylt @Ezekiel:31:17 @Also they with him have gone down to sheol , Unto the pierced of the sword , And -- his arm -- they dwelt in his shade in the midst of nations . ylt @Ezekiel:31:18 @Unto whom hast thou been thus like , In honour and in greatness among the trees of Eden , And thou hast been brought down with the trees of Eden , Unto the earth -- the lower part , In the midst of the uncircumcised thou liest , With the pierced of the sword ? It [is ] Pharaoh , and all his multitude , An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah !'
