New International Version
8 The cedars(A) in the garden of God
could not rival it,
nor could the junipers
equal its boughs,
nor could the plane trees(B)
compare with its branches—
no tree in the garden of God
could match its beauty.(C)
9 I made it beautiful
with abundant branches,
the envy of all the trees of Eden(D)
in the garden of God.(E)

So that all the trees of Eden envied it,
That were in the garden of God.’
