Ezekiel 31:5-7

Modern English Version

⁵ Therefore its height was exalted
    above all the trees of the field,
and its boughs were multiplied,
    and its branches became long
    because of the abundance of water, as it spread them out.
⁶ All the fowl of heaven
    made their nests in its boughs;
and under its branches
    all the beasts of the field gave birth;
and under its shadow
    all great nations lived.
⁷ Thus it was fair in its greatness,
    in the length of its branches,
for its roots were
    by many waters.
