Ezekiel 31:15-18

English Standard Version

¹⁵ “Thus says the Lord God: On the day ^(A)the cedar^[a] went down to Sheol I caused mourning; I closed the deep over it, and restrained its rivers, and many waters were stopped. I clothed Lebanon in gloom for it, and all the trees of the field fainted because of it. ^16 (B)I made the nations quake at the sound of its fall, ^(C)when I cast it down to Sheol with those who go down to the pit. ^(D)And all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, ^(E)were comforted in the world below. ¹⁷ They also went down to Sheol with it, ^(F)to those who are slain by the sword; yes, ^(G)those who were its arm, ^(H)who lived under its shadow among the nations.

^18 (I)“Whom are you thus like in glory and in greatness ^(J)among the trees of Eden? ^(K)You shall be brought down with ^(L)the trees of Eden to the world below. ^(M)You shall lie among the uncircumcised, ^(N)with those who are slain by the sword.

^(O)“This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, declares the Lord God.”
