“In the day when he went down to Sheol
I caused the deep to mourn
and cover itself for him.
I restrained his rivers,

I made Lebanon mourn for him.
All the trees of the field wilt away for it.
16 I made the nations tremble at the sound of its fall,
when I cast him down to Sheol with those who descend into the Pit.
All the well-watered trees of Eden,
the choice and best of Lebanon,
were comforted in the lowest parts of the earth.
17 They also went down with him to Sheol,
to those slain by the sword,
those who were his mighty arm,
who lived in his shadow among the nations.
