Ezekiel 31:2-18

31:2

Son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

speak
<0559> (8798)

unto Pharaoh
<06547>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and to his multitude
<01995>_;

Whom art thou like
<01819> (8804)

in thy greatness
<01433>_?

31:3

Behold, the Assyrian
<0804>

[was] a cedar
<0730>

in Lebanon
<03844>

with fair
<03303>

branches
<06057>_,

and with a shadowing
<06751> (8688)

shroud
<02793>_,

and of an high
<01362>

stature
<06967>_;

and his top
<06788>

was among the thick boughs
<05688>_.

{with fair branches: Heb. fair of branches}

31:4

The waters
<04325>

made him great
<01431> (8765)_,

the deep
<08415>

set him up on high
<07311> (8790)

with her rivers
<05104>

running
<01980> (8802)

round about
<05439>

his plants
<04302>_,

and sent out
<07971> (8765)

her little rivers
<08585>

unto all the trees
<06086>

of the field
<07704>_.

{made...: or, nourished him} {set...: or, brought him up} {little rivers: or, conduits}

31:5

Therefore his height
<06967>

was exalted
<01361> (8804)

above all the trees
<06086>

of the field
<07704>_,

and his boughs
<05634>

were multiplied
<07235> (8799)_,

and his branches
<06288>

became long
<0748> (8799)

because of the multitude
<07227>

of waters
<04325>_,

when he shot forth
<07971> (8763)_.

{when...: or, when it sent them forth}

31:6

All the fowls
<05775>

of heaven
<08064>

made their nests
<07077> (8765)

in his boughs
<05589>_,

and under his branches
<06288>

did all the beasts
<02416>

of the field
<07704>

bring forth their young
<03205> (8804)_,

and under his shadow
<06738>

dwelt
<03427> (8799)

all great
<07227>

nations
<01471>_.

31:7

Thus was he fair
<03302> (8799)

in his greatness
<01433>_,

in the length
<0753>

of his branches
<01808>_:

for his root
<08328>

was by great
<07227>

waters
<04325>_.

31:8

The cedars
<0730>

in the garden
<01588>

of God
<0430>

could not hide
<06004> (8804)

him: the fir trees
<01265>

were not like
<01819> (8804)

his boughs
<05589>_,

and the chesnut trees
<06196>

were not like his branches
<06288>_;

nor any tree
<06086>

in the garden
<01588>

of God
<0430>

was like
<01819> (8804)

unto him in his beauty
<03308>_.

31:9

I have made
<06213> (8804)

him fair
<03303>

by the multitude
<07230>

of his branches
<01808>_:

so that all the trees
<06086>

of Eden
<05731>_,

that [were] in the garden
<01588>

of God
<0430>_,

envied
<07065> (8762)

him.

31:10

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

Because thou hast lifted up
<01361> (8804)

thyself in height
<06967>_,

and he hath shot up
<05414> (8799)

his top
<06788>

among the thick boughs
<05688>_,

and his heart
<03824>

is lifted up
<07311> (8804)

in his height
<01363>_;

31:11

I have therefore delivered
<05414> (8799)

him into the hand
<03027>

of the mighty one
<0410>

of the heathen
<01471>_;

he shall surely
<06213> (8800)

deal
<06213> (8799)

with him: I have driven him out
<01644> (8765)

for his wickedness
<07562>_.

{he...: Heb. in doing he shall do unto him}

31:12

And strangers
<02114> (8801)_,

the terrible
<06184>

of the nations
<01471>_,

have cut him off
<03772> (8799)_,

and have left
<05203> (8799)

him: upon the mountains
<02022>

and in all the valleys
<01516>

his branches
<01808>

are fallen
<05307> (8804)_,

and his boughs
<06288>

are broken
<07665> (8735)

by all the rivers
<0650>

of the land
<0776>_;

and all the people
<05971>

of the earth
<0776>

are gone down
<03381> (8799)

from his shadow
<06738>_,

and have left
<05203> (8799)

him.

31:13

Upon his ruin
<04658>

shall all the fowls
<05775>

of the heaven
<08064>

remain
<07931> (8799)_,

and all the beasts
<02416>

of the field
<07704>

shall be upon his branches
<06288>_:

31:14

To the end that none of all the trees
<06086>

by the waters
<04325>

exalt
<01361> (8799)

themselves for their height
<06967>_,

neither shoot up
<05414> (8799)

their top
<06788>

among the thick boughs
<05688>_,

neither their trees
<0352>

stand up
<05975> (8799)

in their height
<01363>_,

all that drink
<08354> (8802)

water
<04325>_:

for they are all delivered
<05414> (8738)

unto death
<04194>_,

to the nether parts
<08482>

of the earth
<0776>_,

in the midst
<08432>

of the children
<01121>

of men
<0120>_,

with them that go down
<03381> (8802)

to the pit
<0953>_.

{their trees...: or, stand upon themselves for their height}

31:15

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

In the day
<03117>

when he went down
<03381> (8800)

to the grave
<07585>

I caused a mourning
<056> (8689)_:

I covered
<03680> (8765)

the deep
<08415>

for him, and I restrained
<04513> (8799)

the floods
<05104>

thereof, and the great
<07227>

waters
<04325>

were stayed
<03607> (8735)_:

and I caused Lebanon
<03844>

to mourn
<06937> (8686)

for him, and all the trees
<06086>

of the field
<07704>

fainted
<05969>

for him. {to mourn: Heb. to be black}

31:16

I made the nations
<01471>

to shake
<07493> (8689)

at the sound
<06963>

of his fall
<04658>_,

when I cast him down
<03381> (8687)

to hell
<07585>

with them that descend
<03381> (8802)

into the pit
<0953>_:

and all the trees
<06086>

of Eden
<05731>_,

the choice
<04005>

and best
<02896>

of Lebanon
<03844>_,

all that drink
<08354> (8802)

water
<04325>_,

shall be comforted
<05162> (8735)

in the nether parts
<08482>

of the earth
<0776>_.

31:17

They also went down
<03381> (8804)

into hell
<07585>

with him unto [them that be] slain
<02491>

with the sword
<02719>_;

and [they that were] his arm
<02220>_,

[that] dwelt
<03427> (8804)

under his shadow
<06738>

in the midst
<08432>

of the heathen
<01471>_.

31:18

To whom art thou thus like
<01819> (8804)

in glory
<03519>

and in greatness
<01433>

among the trees
<06086>

of Eden
<05731>_?

yet shalt thou be brought down
<03381> (8717)

with the trees
<06086>

of Eden
<05731>

unto the nether parts
<08482>

of the earth
<0776>_:

thou shalt lie
<07901> (8799)

in the midst
<08432>

of the uncircumcised
<06189>

with [them that be] slain
<02491>

by the sword
<02719>_.

This [is] Pharaoh
<06547>

and all his multitude
<01995>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_.
