Berean Standard Bible
And
it
cometh
to
pass,
in the eleventh year, in
the
third
`month',
in
the first of the month, hath
a
word of Jehovah
been
unto
me, saying :
In the eleventh year, on
the first day
of the third
month, the
word of the
LORD
came
to
me, saying ,
`
Son of man, say unto
Pharaoh king of Egypt ,
and unto
his multitude: To whom
hast
thou
been
like
in
thy
greatness?
“
Son of man, say to
Pharaoh king of Egypt and to
his multitude: ‘Who
can
be
compared
to your
greatness?
Lo,
Asshur
, a cedar in Lebanon, Fair
in
branch,
and
shading
bough,
and
high in
stature,
And
between
thickets
hath
its foliage
been
.
Look
at
Assyria
, a cedar in Lebanon, with
beautiful
branches
that
shaded
the
forest.
It
towered
on
high ;
its top
was
among
the
clouds
.
Waters have
made it great,
The deep hath
exalted
him
with
its
flowings
, Going
round
about
its planting,
And its
conduits
it
hath
sent
forth
unto
all trees of the field.
The
waters made it grow;
the deep springs
made
it
tall
, directing
their
streams
all
around
its base
and sending
their
channels
to
all the
trees of the field.
Therefore higher hath
been
his
stature
than all trees of the field ,
And
multiplied are
his
boughs
, and long are
his
branches,
Because of many
waters in
his
shooting
forth,
Therefore it
towered
higher than all the
trees of the field .
Its
branches
multiplied, and its
boughs
grew
long as
it
spread
them
out
because of the
abundant
waters .
In
his
boughs
made
a
nest
hath
every
fowl
of the heavens
, And under
his
branches
brought
forth
hath
every
beast
of the field ,
And
in
his
shade
dwell
do
all great nations.
All
the
birds
of the air
nested
in
its
branches
, and all
the
beasts
of the field gave
birth
beneath
its
boughs;
all the
great nations lived
in
its
shade
.
And
he
is
fair
in his
greatness, In the length of his
thin
shoots
, For his
root
hath
been
by
great
waters.
It
was
beautiful
in its
greatness, in the length of its
limbs
, for its
roots
extended
to
abundant
waters.
Cedars have
not
hid
him
in the garden of God ,
Firs
have
not been
like
unto
his
boughs,
And
chesnut-trees
have
not been
as
his
branches, No tree in the garden of God hath
been
like
unto
him
in
his
beauty ,
The
cedars in the garden of God could
not rival
it;
the
cypresses
could
not compare
with
its
branches, nor
the
plane
trees
match
its
boughs.
No tree in the garden of God could
compare
with
its
beauty .
Fair
I have
made him
in
the
multitude
of
his
thin
shoots
, And
envy him
do
all trees of Eden that
`are'
in the garden of God.
I made it
beautiful
with
its
many
branches
, the
envy of
all the
trees of Eden ,
which
were
in the garden of God. ’
Therefore ,
thus
said
the Lord Jehovah
: Because
that
thou
hast
been
high
in stature,
And he
yieldeth
his
foliage
between
thickets
, And high
is
his
heart
in
his
haughtiness
,
Therefore this
is
what
the Lord GOD
says
: ‘Since
it
became
great
in height
and set
its
top
among
the
clouds
, and it
grew
proud
on
account
of
its
height
,
I give
him
into the hand of a
god
of nations, He
dealeth
sorely
with
him ,
In
his
wickedness I have cast
him
out
.
I delivered
it
into the hand of the
ruler
of the
nations, for
him to
deal
with
it
according
to
its
wickedness .
I have banished
it
.
And
cut
him
off
do
strangers
, The terrible
of nations, and they
leave
him,
On the mountains and in all
valleys
have
his
thin
shoots
fallen,
And
broken
are
his
boughs at
all streams
of
the land,
And go
down
from
his
shade
do
all peoples of the land,
and they
leave
him
.
Foreigners
, the most
ruthless
of the
nations, cut
it
down
and left
it.
Its
branches
have
fallen
on the mountains and in every
valley;
its
boughs lay
broken
in
all the earth’s
ravines.
And all the
peoples of the earth
left
its
shade
and abandoned
it
.
On
his
ruin
dwell
do
all fowls
of the heavens
, And on
his
boughs
have
been
all the beasts of the field ,
All the
birds
of the air
nested
on
its
fallen
trunk
, and all the beasts of the field lived
among
its
boughs.
In
order
that none
of
the
trees of
the waters May
become haughty
because
of
their
stature,
Nor
give
their foliage
between
thickets
, Nor
any
drinking
waters
stand
up
unto
them in their
haughtiness,
For all of
them
are
given
up
to death, Unto
the
earth
--
the
lower
part,
In
the midst
of the sons
of
men
, Unto
those
going
down
to the pit.
This
happened
so
that no
other
trees by
the waters would
become great
in
height
and
set
their tops
among
the
clouds
, and
no
other
well-watered
trees
would
reach
them in height.
For they
have
all been
consigned
to death, to
the depths
of the earth
, among
the
mortals
who
descend
to the Pit. ’
Thus
said
the Lord Jehovah
: In
the day of
his
going
down to sheol I have
caused mourning ,
I have
covered for
him
the deep ,
and
diminish
its flowings,
And
restrained
are
many
waters ,
And
I make
Lebanon black
for him
, And all trees of the field have
been
covered
for
him
.
This
is
what
the Lord GOD
says
: ‘On
the day it
was
brought
down to Sheol ,
I caused mourning .
I covered the deep because
of
it;
I
held
back
its rivers;
its
abundant
waters were
restrained.
I made
Lebanon mourn
for it
, and all the
trees of the field fainted
because
of
it
.
From
the sound of his
fall
I
have
caused
nations
to
shake
, In
My
causing
him
to
go
down to sheol ,
With those going
down
to the pit ,
And
comforted
in
the
earth
--
the
lower
part,
are
all trees of Eden, The choice
and the
good
of Lebanon, All drinking
waters
.
I
made
the nations
quake
at
the
sound of its
downfall
, when
I
cast
it
down to Sheol with those who
descend
to the Pit .
Then
all the
trees of Eden, the choicest
and best
of Lebanon, all the
well-watered
trees,
were
consoled
in
the
earth
below
.
Also
they with him
have
gone
down
to sheol, Unto
the
pierced
of
the sword ,
And
--
his
arm
--
they dwelt
in his
shade in
the midst
of
nations.
They too
descended
with it
to Sheol, to
those
slain
by
the sword .
As
its
allies
they had
lived
in its
shade among
the nations.
Unto
whom
hast
thou
been
thus
like ,
In honour
and in
greatness among the trees of Eden ,
And
thou
hast
been
brought down with
the trees
of Eden,
Unto
the earth --
the
lower
part,
In
the midst
of the uncircumcised thou
liest
, With the
pierced
of
the sword ?
It
`
is '
Pharaoh ,
and all his multitude, An
affirmation
of
the Lord Jehovah!'
Who
then
is
like you
in glory
and greatness among the trees of Eden ?
You
also
will
be
brought down to
the depths
of the earth to
be
with
the trees
of Eden.
You
will
lie
among
the uncircumcised, with those
slain
by
the sword .
This
is Pharaoh and all his multitude, declares
the Lord GOD.’”
