Ezekiel 31:1 And it came to pass in the eleventh259 6240 year,8141 in the third7992 month, in the first259 day of the month,2320 that the word1697 of the LORD3068 came unto me, saying,559 cr 2 Son1121 of man,120 speak559 unto Pharaoh6547 king4428 of Egypt,4714 and to his multitude;1995 Whom art thou like1819 in thy greatness?1433 cr 3 Behold, the Assyrian804 was a cedar730 in Lebanon3844 with fair3303 branches,6057{Heb. fair of branches} and with a shadowing6751 shroud,2793 and of an high1362 stature;6967 and his top6788 was among the thick boughs.5688 cr 4 The waters4325 made him great,1431{Or, nourished} the deep8415 set him up{Or, brought him up} on high7311 with her rivers5104 running1980 round about5439 his plants,4302 and sent out7971 her little rivers8585{Heb. conduits} unto all the trees6086 of the field.7704 cr 5 Therefore his height6967 was exalted1361 above all the trees6086 of the field,7704 and his boughs5634 were multiplied,7235 and his branches6288 became long748 because of the multitude7227 of waters,4325 when he shot forth.7971{Or, when it sent them forth} cr 6 All the fowls5775 of heaven8064 made their nests7077 in his boughs,5589 and under his branches6288 did all the beasts2416 of the field7704 bring forth their young,3205 and under his shadow6738 dwelt3427 all great7227 nations.1471 cr 7 Thus was he fair3302 in his greatness,1433 in the length753 of his branches:1808 for his root8328 was by great7227 waters.4325 cr 8 The cedars730 in the garden1588 of God430 could not hide6004 him: the fir trees1265 were not like1819 his boughs,5589 and the chesnut trees6196 were not like his branches;6288 nor any tree6086 in the garden1588 of God430 was like1819 unto him in his beauty.3308 cr 9 I have made6213 him fair3303 by the multitude7230 of his branches:1808 so that all the trees6086 of Eden,5731 that were in the garden1588 of God,430 envied7065 him. cr

Ezekiel 31:10 Therefore thus saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Because thou hast lifted up1361 thyself in height,6967 and he hath shot up5414 his top6788 among the thick boughs,5688 and his heart3824 is lifted up7311 in his height;1363 cr 11 I have therefore delivered5414 him into the hand3027 of the mighty one410 of the heathen;1471 he shall surely6213 deal6213 with him:{Heb. in doing he shall do unto him} I have driven him out1644 for his wickedness.7562 cr 12 And strangers,2114 the terrible6184 of the nations,1471 have cut him off,3772 and have left5203 him: upon the mountains2022 and in all the valleys1516 his branches1808 are fallen,5307 and his boughs6288 are broken7665 by all the rivers650 of the land;776 and all the people5971 of the earth776 are gone down3381 from his shadow,6738 and have left5203 him. cr 13 Upon his ruin4658 shall all the fowls5775 of the heaven8064 remain,7931 and all the beasts2416 of the field7704 shall be upon his branches:6288 cr 14 To the end that none of all the trees6086 by the waters4325 exalt1361 themselves for their height,6967 neither shoot up5414 their top6788 among the thick boughs,5688 neither their trees352 stand up5975{Or, stand upon themselves for their height} in their height,1363 all that drink8354 water:4325 for they are all delivered5414 unto death,4194 to the nether parts8482 of the earth,776 in the midst8432 of the children1121 of men,120 with them that go down3381 to the pit.953 cr 15 Thus saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 In the day3117 when he went down3381 to the grave7585 I caused a mourning:56 I covered3680 the deep8415 for him, and I restrained4513 the floods5104 thereof, and the great7227 waters4325 were stayed:3607 and I caused Lebanon3844 to mourn6937{Heb. to be black} for him, and all the trees6086 of the field7704 fainted5969 for him. cr 16 I made the nations1471 to shake7493 at the sound6963 of his fall,4658 when I cast him down3381 to hell7585 with them that descend3381 into the pit:953 and all the trees6086 of Eden,5731 the choice4005 and best2896 of Lebanon,3844 all that drink8354 water,4325 shall be comforted5162 in the nether parts8482 of the earth.776 cr 17 They also went down3381 into hell7585 with him unto them that be slain2491 with the sword;2719 and they that were his arm,2220 that dwelt3427 under his shadow6738 in the midst8432 of the heathen.1471 cr

Ezekiel 31:18 To whom art thou thus like1819 in glory3519 and in greatness1433 among the trees6086 of Eden?5731 yet shalt thou be brought down3381 with the trees6086 of Eden5731 unto the nether parts8482 of the earth:776 thou shalt lie7901 in the midst8432 of the uncircumcised6189 with them that be slain2491 by the sword.2719 This is Pharaoh6547 and all his multitude,1995 saith5002 the Lord136 GOD.3069 cr
