Ezekiel 31:12-14

Tree of Life Version

¹² Ruthless barbarians from the nations cut it down. They cast it down on the mountains and in all the valleys its branches fell. Its branches have laid broken in all the streambeds of the land. All the people of the earth have come out from its shade and abandoned it.

¹³ All the birds of the sky lived on its fallen trunk and all the beasts of the field upon its fallen branches.

¹⁴ So none of all the trees by the water should exalt themselves in their height or set their top among the leafy boughs. None of their well-watered mighty ones should attain their height.

For they have all been given to death, to the lowest regions under the earth, among the children of men who go down to the Pit.”
