Ezekiel 31:7-9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
7 It was magnificent in size
and in the length of its branches,
For its roots reached down
to the many waters.
8 In the garden of God,
no cedars could rival it,
No juniper could equal its branches,
no plane tree match its boughs.
No tree in the garden of God
could match its beauty.(A)
9 I made it beautiful
with abundant foliage,
So that all the trees in Eden
were envious of it.[a]
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)
