And its height (A)reached to the sky,
And it was visible to the end of the whole earth.
12 Its foliage was (B)beautiful and its fruit abundant,
And in it was food for all.
The (C)animals of the field [a]found (D)shade under it,
And the (E)birds of the sky lived in its branches,
And all [b]living creatures fed from it.
