Egypt Cut Down Like a Great Tree
1 Now it came to pass in the aeleventh year, in the third month, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Son of man, say to Pharaoh king of Egypt and to his multitude:
a‘Whom are you like in your greatness?
a‘Whom are you like in your greatness?
3 aIndeed Assyria was a cedar in Lebanon,
With fine branches that shaded the forest,
And of high stature;
And its top was among the thick boughs.
With fine branches that shaded the forest,
And of high stature;
And its top was among the thick boughs.
4 aThe waters made it grow;
Underground waters gave it height,
With their rivers running around the place where it was planted,
And sent out1 rivulets to all the trees of the field.
Underground waters gave it height,
With their rivers running around the place where it was planted,
And sent out1 rivulets to all the trees of the field.
