15 “Thus says the Lord God: On the day (A)the cedar[a] went down to Sheol I caused mourning; I closed the deep over it, and restrained its rivers, and many waters were stopped. I clothed Lebanon in gloom for it, and all the trees of the field fainted because of it. 16 (B)I made the nations quake at the sound of its fall, (C)when I cast it down to Sheol with those who go down to the pit. (D)And all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, (E)were comforted in the world below. 17 They also went down to Sheol with it, (F)to those who are slain by the sword; yes, (G)those who were its arm, (H)who lived under its shadow among the nations.
