Ezekiel 31:6-9
6All the 1birds of the sky nested in its twigs, And under its branches all the animals of the field gave birth, And all great nations lived under its shade.7So it was beautiful in its greatness, in the length of its branches; For its 2roots extended to many waters.8The 3cedars in 4God’s garden 5could not match it; The junipers 6could not compare with its branches, And the plane trees 7could not match its branches. No tree in 8God’s garden 9could compare with it in its beauty.9I made it beautiful with the multitude of its branches, And all the trees of 10Eden, which were in the 11garden of God, were jealous of it.
