Ezekiel 31:4-6
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
4 The waters nourished it,
the deep made it grow tall,
making its rivers flow[a]
around the place where it was planted,
sending forth its streams
to all the trees of the field.
5 So it towered high
above all the trees of the field;
its boughs grew large
and its branches long,
from abundant water in its shoots.
6 All the birds of the air
made their nests in its boughs;
under its branches all the animals of the field
gave birth to their young;
and in its shade
all great nations lived.
