Ezekiel 31:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 Son of man, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude, Whom art thou [a]like in thy greatness?
3 Behold, Assyria was like a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with thick shadowing boughs, and shot up very high, and his top was among the thick boughs.
4 The waters nourished him, and the deep exalted him on high with her rivers running round about his plants, and sent out her [b]little rivers unto all the trees of the [c]field.
