Ezekiel 31:3-5
Complete Jewish Bible
Ezekiel 31:3-5
Complete Jewish Bible
3 Like Ashur, a cedar in the L’vanon.
It had beautiful branches, dense foliage,
its tall crown surrounded by leafy boughs.
4 The water nourished it; the deep made it grow,
sending its rivers round the place where it was planted,
sending its streams to all the trees in the fields.
5 So it grew taller than any other tree,
its branches grew in number and spread far and wide,
for it had plenty of water to make them grow.
Ezekiel 31:3-5
New International Version
Ezekiel 31:3-5
New International Version
3 Consider Assyria,(A) once a cedar in Lebanon,(B)
with beautiful branches overshadowing the forest;
it towered on high,
its top above the thick foliage.(C)
4 The waters(D) nourished it,
deep springs made it grow tall;
their streams flowed
all around its base
and sent their channels
to all the trees of the field.(E)
5 So it towered higher(F)
than all the trees of the field;
its boughs increased
and its branches grew long,
spreading because of abundant waters.(G)

King James Version
Ezekiel 31:3-5
King James Version
3 Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top was among the thick boughs.
4 The waters made him great, the deep set him up on high with her rivers running round about his plants, and sent her little rivers unto all the trees of the field.
5 Therefore his height was exalted above all the trees of the field, and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long because of the multitude of waters, when he shot forth.
