Ezekiel 31:3-7

Ezekiel 31:3-7 TPT

I know who: Assyria! Once it was like a cedar tree in Lebanon, with its noble branches, its forest shade, and its lofty height, its treetop among the clouds. Plenty of water has made it grow, deep springs have made it tall. Streams flow all around where it was planted, sending rivulets to all the other trees. So it towered high, much higher than the other trees of the forest. Because of the plentiful waters making it grow, its branches increased in number and spread out very far. All the birds of heaven nested in its strong branches, and wild animals gave birth under its shade. Many, many people sat in its shadow. It was beautiful in its greatness, tall, with such large branches! For its roots were planted in plentiful waters.
