Ezekiel 31:3-12 Behold, Assur a cedar in Lebanon, fair of branch, and a shading thicket, and high of stature; and his foliage was between the thick boughs.

JuliaSmith⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Behold, Assur a cedar in Lebanon, fair of branch, and a shading thicket, and high of stature; and his foliage was between the thick boughs. ⁴ The water made him great, the deep raised him up with her rivers going round about her planting, and she sent forth her channels to all the trees of the field. ⁵ For this his height was lifted up more than all the trees of the field, and his boughs will be multiplied, and his branches will be extended from many waters, in his sending forth. ⁶ And all the birds of the heavens nested in his boughs, under his branches all the of the field brought forth, and in his shadow dwelt all the great nations. ⁷ And he was fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by many waters. ⁸ The cedars did not hide him in the garden of God: the cypresses were not like to his boughs, and the plane trees were not as his branches; every tree in the garden of God was not like to him in his beauty. ⁹ I made him fair by the multitude of his branches, and all the trees of Eden which are in the garden of God will envy him. ¹⁰ For this, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because thou wert lifted up in height, and he will give his foliage between the thick boughs, and his heart was lifted up in his height; ¹¹ And I will give him into the hand of the God of the nations; he shall do his doing to him: I drove him out for his injustice. ¹² And strangers, the terrible of the nations, shall cut him off and cast him down: upon the mountains and in all the galleys his branches fell, and his boughs shall be broken by all the torrents of the land; and all the people of the land shall go down from his shadow, and will cast him down.
