Ezekiel 31:7-9

Good News Translation

⁷ How beautiful the tree was—
So tall, with such long branches.
Its roots reached down to the deep-flowing streams.
^8 (A)No cedar in God's garden could compare with it.
No fir tree ever had such branches,
And no plane tree such limbs.
No tree in God's own garden was so beautiful.
⁹ I made it beautiful, with spreading branches.
It was the envy of every tree in Eden, the garden of God.
