Ezekiel 31:2-4

Christian Standard Bible

‘Who are you like in your greatness?
³ Think of Assyria, a cedar in Lebanon,^(A)
with beautiful branches and shady foliage
and of lofty height.
Its top was among the clouds.^[a]
4 The waters caused it to grow;
the underground springs made it tall,
directing their rivers all around
the place where the tree was planted
and sending their channels
to all the trees of the field.
