Ezekiel 31:7 Context
5Therefore his height was exalted aboue all the trees of the field, and his boughes were multiplied, and his branches became long because of the multitude of waters, when he shot foorth. 6All the foules of heauen made their nests in his boughes, and vnder his branches did all the beastes of the field bring foorth their yong, and vnder his shadow dwelt all great nations. 7Thus was hee faire in his greatnesse, in the length of his branches: for his roote was by great waters. 8The Cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the Firre trees were not like his boughes, and the chesnut trees were not like his branches: not any tree in the garden of God, was like vnto him in his beautie. 9I haue made him faire by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, enuied him.
