Ezekiel 31:12 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown

Ezekiel 31:12

10 “Therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Because you have increased in height, and it set its top among the thick boughs, and ^aits heart was lifted up in its height,

11 therefore I will deliver it into the hand of the ^amighty one of the nations, and he shall surely deal with it; I have driven it out for its wickedness.

12 And aliens, ^athe most terrible of the nations, have cut it down and left it; its branches have fallen ^bon the mountains and in all the valleys; its boughs lie ^cbroken by all the rivers of the land; and all the peoples of the earth have gone from under its shadow and left it.

13 ‘On ^aits ruin will remain all the birds of the heavens,
And all the beasts of the field will come to its branches—

14 ‘So that no trees by the waters may ever again exalt themselves for their height, nor set their tops among the thick boughs, that no tree which drinks water may ever be high enough to reach up to them.
‘For ^athey have all been delivered to death,
^bTo the depths of the earth,
Among the children of men who go down to the Pit.’
