Ezekiel 31:15-17

Common English Bible

¹⁵ The Lord God proclaims: On the day that it went down to the underworld,^[a] I caused mourning. I blocked off the deep sea against it. I dried up its rivers and restrained the mighty waters. I made Lebanon go into mourning for it, and all the trees of the field languished on its account. ¹⁶ When it was felled, the nations quaked at the sound. When I cast it down into the underworld, with those who go down to the pit, all the trees of Eden were comforted in the world below, the choicest and the best of Lebanon, all the trees that depended on water. ¹⁷ His allies,^[b] those among the nations who lived under his shade, these also went down with him to the underworld, to those who are slain by the sword.
