Ezekiel 31:7-9
Contemporary English Version
Ezekiel 31:7-9
Contemporary English Version
7 It had beautiful,
long branches,
and its roots found water
deep in the soil.
8 (A) None of the cedar trees
in my garden of Eden
were as beautiful
as this tree;
no tree of any kind
had such long branches.
9 I, the Lord, gave this tree
its beauty,
and I helped the branches
grow strong.
All other trees in Eden
wanted to be just like it.

Ezekiel 31:7-9
New International Version
7 It was majestic in beauty,
with its spreading boughs,
for its roots went down
to abundant waters.(A)
8 The cedars(B) in the garden of God
could not rival it,
nor could the junipers
equal its boughs,
nor could the plane trees(C)
compare with its branches—
no tree in the garden of God
could match its beauty.(D)
9 I made it beautiful
with abundant branches,
the envy of all the trees of Eden(E)
in the garden of God.(F)
