Ezekiel 31:15-17

English Standard Version Anglicised

¹⁵ “Thus says the Lord God: On the day ^(A)the cedar^[a] went down to Sheol I caused mourning; I closed the deep over it, and restrained its rivers, and many waters were stopped. I clothed Lebanon in gloom for it, and all the trees of the field fainted because of it. ^16 (B)I made the nations quake at the sound of its fall, ^(C)when I cast it down to Sheol with those who go down to the pit. ^(D)And all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, ^(E)were comforted in the world below. ¹⁷ They also went down to Sheol with it, ^(F)to those who are slain by the sword; yes, ^(G)those who were its arm, ^(H)who lived under its shadow among the nations.
