Ezekiel 31:2-4

English Standard Version

^(C)“Whom are you like in your greatness?
³     Behold, ^(D)Assyria was a ^(E)cedar in ^(F)Lebanon,
with beautiful branches and ^(G)forest shade,
    ^(H)and of towering height,
    its top among the clouds.^[a]
4 The waters nourished it;
    the deep made it grow tall,
making ^(I)its rivers flow
    around the place of its planting,
sending forth its streams
    to all the trees of the field.
