Ezekiel 31:3-9
New King James Version
3 (A)Indeed Assyria was a cedar in Lebanon,
With fine branches that shaded the forest,
And of high stature;
And its top was among the thick boughs.
4 (B)The waters made it grow;
Underground waters gave it height,
With their rivers running around the place where it was planted,
And sent out [a]rivulets to all the trees of the field.
5 ‘Therefore (C)its height was exalted above all the trees of the field;
Its boughs were multiplied,
And its branches became long because of the abundance of water,
As it sent them out.
6 All the (D)birds of the heavens made their nests in its boughs;
Under its branches all the beasts of the field brought forth their young;
And in its shadow all great nations [b]made their home.
7 ‘Thus it was beautiful in greatness and in the length of its branches,
Because its roots reached to abundant waters.
8 The cedars in the (E)garden of God could not hide it;
The fir trees were not like its boughs,
And the [c]chestnut trees were not like its branches;
No tree in the garden of God was like it in beauty.
9 I made it beautiful with a multitude of branches,
So that all the trees of Eden envied it,
That were in the garden of God.’

Ezekiel 31:3-9
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)
6 All the birds of the sky
nested in its boughs,
all the animals of the wild
gave birth(H) under its branches;
all the great nations
lived in its shade.(I)
7 It was majestic in beauty,
with its spreading boughs,
for its roots went down
to abundant waters.(J)
8 The cedars(K) in the garden of God
could not rival it,
nor could the junipers
equal its boughs,
nor could the plane trees(L)
compare with its branches—
no tree in the garden of God
could match its beauty.(M)
9 I made it beautiful
with abundant branches,
the envy of all the trees of Eden(N)
in the garden of God.(O)
