14soH4616 thatH4616 allH3605 the treesH6086 by the watersH4325 will not be exaltedH1361 in their statureH6967, norH3808 putH5414 their topsH6788 amongH996 the 1cloudsH5645, norH3808 will anyH3605 of their 2well-wateredH8354 mightyH352 ones standH5975 straight in their heightH6967. For they have allH3605 been turnedH5414 overH5414 to deathH4194, to the 3earthH776 beneathH8482, amongH8432 4mankindH1121 H120, 5with those who goH3381 downH3381 to the pitH953.”

15‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “On the dayH3117 when it wentH3381 downH3381 to SheolH7585 I 6causedH56 mourningH56; I closedH3680 the 7deepH8415 overH5921 it and heldH4513 backH4513 its riversH5104. And its manyH7227 watersH4325 were stoppedH3607 upH3607, and I made LebanonH3844 mournH6937 for it, and allH3605 the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704 wiltedH5968 awayH5968 onH5921 accountH5921 ofH5921 it. 16I made the nationsH1471 8quakeH7493 from the soundH6963 of its fallH4658 when I made it 9goH3381 downH3381 to SheolH7585 with those who goH3381 downH3381 to the pitH953; and allH3605 the 10well-wateredH8354 treesH6086 of EdenH5731, the choicestH4005 and bestH2896 of 11LebanonH3844, were 12comfortedH5162 in the earthH776 beneathH8482. 17They alsoH1571 13wentH3381 downH3381 with it to SheolH7585 to those who were 14slainH2491 by the swordH2719; and those who were its 15strengthH2220 livedH3427 16in its shadeH6738 amongH8432 the nationsH1471.
