Ezekiel 31:14
Bible Versions
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.
To the end that none of all the trees {H6086} by the waters {H4325} exalt {H1361} themselves for their height {H6967}, neither shoot up {H5414} their top {H6788} among the thick boughs {H5688}, neither their trees {H352} stand up {H5975} in their height {H1363}, all that drink {H8354} water {H4325}: for they are all delivered {H5414} unto death {H4194}, to the nether parts {H8482} of the earth {H776}, in the midst {H8432} of the children {H1121} of men {H120}, with them that go down {H3381} to the pit {H953}.
This is to warn all the trees growing near water not to grow so tall, not to lift their crowns above the leafy boughs, and all that take up water not to reach up in their height. For they are all given over to death, to the depths of the underworld, along with human beings, with those who descend 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.’
to the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves in their stature, neither set their top among the thick boughs, nor that their mighty ones stand up in their height, even 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.
