All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow dwelt all great nations.

nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.
This happened so that no other trees by the waters would become
great in height and set their tops among the clouds, and no other well-watered trees would reach them in height. For they have all been
consigned to death, to the depths of the earth, among the mortals who descend to the Pit.’

mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the
great waters were stayed: and I caused
Lebanon to
mourn for him, and all the trees of the field
fainted for him.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘On the day it was brought down to
Sheol, I caused
mourning. I covered the deep because of it; I held back its rivers; its abundant waters were restrained. I made
Lebanon mourn for it, and all the trees of the field
fainted because of it.

greatness among the trees of
Eden? You also will be brought down to the depths of the earth to be with the trees of
Eden. You will lie among the
uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, declares the Lord GOD.’”
I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside the

hoofs of beasts trouble them.

hooves will
disturb them.

holiness of My
great name, which has been
profaned among the nations—the name you have

great spoil?
Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of
Tarshish with all its villages will ask, ‘Have you come to capture the

cubit; and from the lesser settle even to the
greater settle shall be four cubits, and the breadth one
cubit.

ledge shall be two cubits, and the
ledge one
cubit wide. The space from the smaller

great and powerful, has ever asked anything like this of any
magician,
enchanter, or
astrologer.
