Ezekiel 31:10-14
New American Standard Bible
10 ‘Therefore this is what the Lord [a]God says: “Because [b]it is tall in stature and has put its top among the [c]clouds, and its (A)heart is haughty in its loftiness, 11 I will hand it over to a [d](B)ruler of the nations; he will thoroughly deal with it. In accordance with its wickedness I have (C)driven it out. 12 (D)Foreign (E)tyrants of the nations have cut it down and left it; on the (F)mountains and in all the valleys its branches have fallen, and its branches have been broken in all the ravines of the land. And all the peoples of the earth have (G)gone down from its shade and left it. 13 All the (H)birds of the sky will nest on its fallen trunk, and all the animals of the field will [e]rest on its fallen branches, 14 so that all the trees by the waters will not be exalted in their stature, nor put their tops among the [f]clouds, nor will any of their [g]well-watered mighty ones stand straight in their height. For they have all been turned over to death, to the (I)earth beneath, among [h]mankind, [i]with those who go down to the pit.”

Ezekiel 31:10-14
New International Version
10 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because the great cedar towered over the thick foliage, and because it was proud(A) of its height, 11 I gave it into the hands of the ruler of the nations, for him to deal with according to its wickedness. I cast it aside,(B) 12 and the most ruthless of foreign nations(C) cut it down and left it. Its boughs fell on the mountains and in all the valleys;(D) its branches lay broken in all the ravines of the land. All the nations of the earth came out from under its shade and left it.(E) 13 All the birds settled on the fallen tree, and all the wild animals lived among its branches.(F) 14 Therefore no other trees by the waters are ever to tower proudly on high, lifting their tops above the thick foliage. No other trees so well-watered are ever to reach such a height; they are all destined(G) for death,(H) for the earth below, among mortals who go down to the realm of the dead.(I)

King James Version
Ezekiel 31:10-14
King James Version
10 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
11 I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.
12 And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.
13 Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:
14 To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.

7 And he said to the vineyard-keeper, ‘Look! For three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree [a]without finding any. (A)Cut it down!
