Psalms 80:10

Compare all

8 You have brought ^aa vine out of Egypt;
^bYou have cast out the¹ nations, and planted it.

9 You prepared room for it,
And caused it to take deep root,
And it filled the land.

10 The hills were covered with its shadow,
And the¹ mighty cedars with its ^aboughs.

11 She sent out her boughs to¹ the Sea,
And her branches to¹ the River.

12 Why have You ^abroken down her hedges,
So that all who pass by the way pluck her fruit?

Psalms 80:10

The hills were covered with the shadow of it - That is, It made a shade, by its luxuriant foliage, on the hills in every part of the land; it seemed to cover all the hills.

And the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars - Margin, as in Hebrew, cedars of God; that is, lofty, majestic cedars. See the notes at Psalms 65:9. The reference here is to the cedars of Lebanon, among the most majestic objects known to the Hebrews.
