And it came to pass in the eleventhH259+H6240 yearH8141, in the thirdH7992 month, in the firstH259 day of the monthH2320, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, speakH559 unto PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and to his multitudeH1995; Whom art thou likeH1819 in thy greatnessH1433?
Behold, the AssyrianH804 was a cedarH730 in LebanonH3844 with fairH3303 branchesH6057, and with a shadowingH6751 shroudH2793, and of an highH1362 statureH6967; and his topH6788 was among the thick boughsH5688. {with fair branches: Heb. fair of branches}
The watersH4325 made him greatH1431, the deepH8415 set him up on highH7311 with her riversH5104 runningH1980 round aboutH5439 his plantsH4302, and sent outH7971 her little riversH8585 unto all the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704. {made…: or, nourished him} {set…: or, brought him up} {little rivers: or, conduits}
Therefore his heightH6967 was exaltedH1361 above all the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704, and his boughsH5634 were multipliedH7235, and his branchesH6288 became longH748 because of the multitudeH7227 of watersH4325, when he shot forthH7971. {when…: or, when it sent them forth}
All the fowlsH5775 of heavenH8064 made their nestsH7077 in his boughsH5589, and under his branchesH6288 did all the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704 bring forth their youngH3205, and under his shadowH6738 dweltH3427 all greatH7227 nationsH1471.
Thus was he fairH3302 in his greatnessH1433, in the lengthH753 of his branchesH1808: for his rootH8328 was by greatH7227 watersH4325.
The cedarsH730 in the gardenH1588 of GodH430 could not hideH6004 him: the fir treesH1265 were not likeH1819 his boughsH5589, and the chesnut treesH6196 were not like his branchesH6288; nor any treeH6086 in the gardenH1588 of GodH430 was likeH1819 unto him in his beautyH3308.
I have madeH6213 him fairH3303 by the multitudeH7230 of his branchesH1808: so that all the treesH6086 of EdenH5731, that were in the gardenH1588 of GodH430, enviedH7065 him.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because thou hast lifted upH1361 thyself in heightH6967, and he hath shot upH5414 his topH6788 among the thick boughsH5688, and his heartH3824 is lifted upH7311 in his heightH1363;
I have therefore deliveredH5414 him into the handH3027 of the mighty oneH410 of the heathenH1471; he shall surelyH6213 dealH6213 with him: I have driven him outH1644 for his wickednessH7562. {he…: Heb. in doing he shall do unto him}
And strangersH2114, the terribleH6184 of the nationsH1471, have cut him offH3772, and have leftH5203 him: upon the mountainsH2022 and in all the valleysH1516 his branchesH1808 are fallenH5307, and his boughsH6288 are brokenH7665 by all the riversH650 of the landH776; and all the peopleH5971 of the earthH776 are gone downH3381 from his shadowH6738, and have leftH5203 him.
Upon his ruinH4658 shall all the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064 remainH7931, and all the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704 shall be upon his branchesH6288:
To the end that none of all the treesH6086 by the watersH4325 exaltH1361 themselves for their heightH6967, neither shoot upH5414 their topH6788 among the thick boughsH5688, neither their treesH352 stand upH5975 in their heightH1363, all that drinkH8354 waterH4325: for they are all deliveredH5414 unto deathH4194, to the nether partsH8482 of the earthH776, in the midstH8432 of the childrenH1121 of menH120, with them that go downH3381 to the pitH953. {their trees…: or, stand upon themselves for their height}
Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; In the dayH3117 when he went downH3381 to the graveH7585 I caused a mourningH56: I coveredH3680 the deepH8415 for him, and I restrainedH4513 the floodsH5104 thereof, and the greatH7227 watersH4325 were stayedH3607: and I caused LebanonH3844 to mournH6937 for him, and all the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704 faintedH5969 for him. {to mourn: Heb. to be black}
I made the nationsH1471 to shakeH7493 at the soundH6963 of his fallH4658, when I cast him downH3381 to hellH7585 with them that descendH3381 into the pitH953: and all the treesH6086 of EdenH5731, the choiceH4005 and bestH2896 of LebanonH3844, all that drinkH8354 waterH4325, shall be comfortedH5162 in the nether partsH8482 of the earthH776.
They also went downH3381 into hellH7585 with him unto them that be slainH2491 with the swordH2719; and they that were his armH2220, that dweltH3427 under his shadowH6738 in the midstH8432 of the heathenH1471.
To whom art thou thus likeH1819 in gloryH3519 and in greatnessH1433 among the treesH6086 of EdenH5731? yet shalt thou be brought downH3381 with the treesH6086 of EdenH5731 unto the nether partsH8482 of the earthH776: thou shalt lieH7901 in the midstH8432 of the uncircumcisedH6189 with them that be slainH2491 by the swordH2719. This is PharaohH6547 and all his multitudeH1995, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
