Ezekiel 31:15-17

15‘This is what the Lord God says: “On the day when it went down to Sheol I 1caused mourning; I closed the 2deep over it and held back its rivers. And its many waters were stopped up, and I made Lebanon mourn for it, and all the trees of the field wilted away on account of it. 16I made the nations 3quake from the sound of its fall when I made it 4go down to Sheol with those who go down to the pit; and all the 5well-watered trees of Eden, the choicest and best of 6Lebanon, were 7comforted in the earth beneath. 17They also 8went down with it to Sheol to those who were 9slain by the sword; and those who were its 10strength lived 11in its shade among the nations.
