Ezekiel 31:13-15

International Standard Version

¹³ All the birds in the sky will live among its ruins, and the wild animals^[a] will forage among its branches. ¹⁴ As a result, none of its watered trees will grow tall, their tops will never reach to the clouds, and they’ll never grow so high again, because all of them have been appointed^[b] to death in the world beneath where human beings go, that is, down to the Pit.’”^[c]

Fear at Assyria’s Fall

¹⁵ “This is what the Lord God says: ‘On the day that it descended into Sheol,^[d] I shut down its water supplies, covered over its deep water, and shut down its rivers. As a result its abundant water sources dried up, and I caused Lebanon to mourn for it. All the trees of the field wilted because of it.
