Ezekiel 31

KJV

1  And it came to pass¹⁹⁶¹ in the eleventh^{259 6240} year,⁸¹⁴¹ in the third⁷⁹⁹² month, in the first²⁵⁹ day of the month,²³²⁰ that the word¹⁶⁹⁷ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ came¹⁹⁶¹ unto⁴¹³ me, saying,⁵⁵⁹

2  Son¹¹²¹ of man,¹²⁰ speak⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Pharaoh⁶⁵⁴⁷ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ and to⁴¹³ his multitude;¹⁹⁹⁵ Whom^{413 4310} art thou like¹⁸¹⁹ in thy greatness?¹⁴³³

3  Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ the Assyrian⁸⁰⁴ was a cedar⁷³⁰ in Lebanon³⁸⁴⁴ with fair³³⁰³ branches,⁶⁰⁵⁷ and with a shadowing⁶⁷⁵¹ shroud,²⁷⁹³ and of a high¹³⁶² stature;⁶⁹⁶⁷ and his top⁶⁷⁸⁸ was¹⁹⁶¹ among⁹⁹⁶ the thick boughs.⁵⁶⁸⁸

4  The waters⁴³²⁵ made him great,¹⁴³¹ the deep⁸⁴¹⁵ set him up on high⁷³¹¹ with⁸⁵⁴ her rivers⁵¹⁰⁴ running¹⁹⁸⁰ round about⁵⁴³⁹ his plants,⁴³⁰² and sent out⁷⁹⁷¹ her little rivers⁸⁵⁸⁵ unto⁴¹³ all³⁶⁰⁵ the trees⁶⁰⁸⁶ of the field.⁷⁷⁰⁴

5  Therefore^{5921 3651} his height⁶⁹⁶⁷ was exalted¹³⁶¹ above all^{4480 3605} the trees⁶⁰⁸⁶ of the field,⁷⁷⁰⁴ and his boughs⁵⁶³⁴ were multiplied,⁷²³⁵ and his branches⁶²⁸⁸ became long⁷⁴⁸ because of the multitude⁷²²⁷ of waters,^{4480 4325} when he shot forth.⁷⁹⁷¹

6  All³⁶⁰⁵ the fowls⁵⁷⁷⁵ of heaven⁸⁰⁶⁴ made their nests⁷⁰⁷⁷ in his boughs,⁵⁵⁸⁹ and under⁸⁴⁷⁸ his branches⁶²⁸⁸ did all³⁶⁰⁵ the beasts²⁴¹⁶ of the field⁷⁷⁰⁴ bring forth their young,³²⁰⁵ and under his shadow⁶⁷³⁸ dwelt³⁴²⁷ all³⁶⁰⁵ great⁷²²⁷ nations.¹⁴⁷¹

7  Thus was he fair³³⁰² in his greatness,¹⁴³³ in the length⁷⁵³ of his branches:¹⁸⁰⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ his root⁸³²⁸ was¹⁹⁶¹ by⁴¹³ great⁷²²⁷ waters.⁴³²⁵

8  The cedars⁷³⁰ in the garden¹⁵⁸⁸ of God⁴³⁰ could not³⁸⁰⁸ hide⁶⁰⁰⁴ him: the fir trees¹²⁶⁵ were not like^{1819 3808 413} his boughs,⁵⁵⁸⁹ and the chestnut trees⁶¹⁹⁶ were¹⁹⁶¹ not³⁸⁰⁸ like his branches;⁶²⁸⁸ nor³⁸⁰⁸ any³⁶⁰⁵ tree⁶⁰⁸⁶ in the garden¹⁵⁸⁸ of God⁴³⁰ was like¹⁸¹⁹ unto⁴¹³ him in his beauty.³³⁰⁸

9  I have made⁶²¹³ him fair³³⁰³ by the multitude⁷²³⁰ of his branches:¹⁸⁰⁸ so that all³⁶⁰⁵ the trees⁶⁰⁸⁶ of Eden,⁵⁷³¹ that⁸³⁴ were in the garden¹⁵⁸⁸ of God,⁴³⁰ envied⁷⁰⁶⁵ him.

10  Therefore³⁶⁵¹ thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the Lord¹³⁶ GOD;³⁰⁶⁹ Because^{3282 834} thou hast lifted up¹³⁶¹ thyself in height,⁶⁹⁶⁷ and he hath shot up⁵⁴¹⁴ his top⁶⁷⁸⁸ among^{413 996} the thick boughs,⁵⁶⁸⁸ and his heart³⁸²⁴ is lifted up⁷³¹¹ in his height;¹³⁶³

11  I have therefore delivered⁵⁴¹⁴ him into the hand³⁰²⁷ of the mighty one³⁵² of the heathen;¹⁴⁷¹ he shall surely deal^{6213 6213} with him: I have driven him out¹⁶⁴⁴ for his wickedness.⁷⁵⁶²

12  And strangers,²¹¹⁴ the terrible⁶¹⁸⁴ of the nations,¹⁴⁷¹ have cut him off,³⁷⁷² and have left⁵²⁰³ him: upon⁴¹³ the mountains²⁰²² and in all³⁶⁰⁵ the valleys¹⁵¹⁶ his branches¹⁸⁰⁸ are fallen,⁵³⁰⁷ and his boughs⁶²⁸⁸ are broken⁷⁶⁶⁵ by all³⁶⁰⁵ the rivers⁶⁵⁰ of the land;⁷⁷⁶ and all³⁶⁰⁵ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ of the earth⁷⁷⁶ are gone down³³⁸¹ from his shadow,^{4480 6738} and have left⁵²⁰³ him.

13  Upon⁵⁹²¹ his ruin⁴⁶⁵⁸ shall all³⁶⁰⁵ the fowls⁵⁷⁷⁵ of the heaven⁸⁰⁶⁴ remain,⁷⁹³¹ and all³⁶⁰⁵ the beasts²⁴¹⁶ of the field⁷⁷⁰⁴ shall be¹⁹⁶¹ upon⁴¹³ his branches:⁶²⁸⁸

14  To the end⁴⁶¹⁶ that⁸³⁴ none³⁸⁰⁸ of all³⁶⁰⁵ the trees⁶⁰⁸⁶ by the waters⁴³²⁵ exalt themselves¹³⁶¹ for their height,⁶⁹⁶⁷ neither³⁸⁰⁸ shoot up^{5414 853} their top⁶⁷⁸⁸ among^{413 996} the thick boughs,⁵⁶⁸⁸ neither³⁸⁰⁸ their trees³⁵² stand up⁵⁹⁷⁵ in their height,¹³⁶³ all³⁶⁰⁵ that drink⁸³⁵⁴ water:⁴³²⁵ for³⁵⁸⁸ they are all³⁶⁰⁵ delivered⁵⁴¹⁴ unto death,⁴¹⁹⁴ to⁴¹³ the nether parts⁸⁴⁸² of the earth,⁷⁷⁶ in the midst⁸⁴³² of the children¹¹²¹ of men,¹²⁰ with⁴¹³ them that go down³³⁸¹ to the pit.⁹⁵³

15  Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the Lord¹³⁶ GOD;³⁰⁶⁹ In the day³¹¹⁷ when he went down³³⁸¹ to the grave⁷⁵⁸⁵ I caused a mourning:⁵⁶ I covered^{3680 853} the deep⁸⁴¹⁵ for⁵⁹²¹ him, and I restrained⁴⁵¹³ the floods⁵¹⁰⁴ thereof, and the great⁷²²⁷ waters⁴³²⁵ were stayed:³⁶⁰⁷ and I caused Lebanon³⁸⁴⁴ to mourn⁶⁹³⁷ for⁵⁹²¹ him, and all³⁶⁰⁵ the trees⁶⁰⁸⁶ of the field⁷⁷⁰⁴ fainted⁵⁹⁶⁹ for⁵⁹²¹ him.

16  I made the nations¹⁴⁷¹ to shake⁷⁴⁹³ at the sound^{4480 6963} of his fall,⁴⁶⁵⁸ when I cast him down^{3381 853} to hell⁷⁵⁸⁵ with⁸⁵⁴ them that descend³³⁸¹ into the pit:⁹⁵³ and all³⁶⁰⁵ the trees⁶⁰⁸⁶ of Eden,⁵⁷³¹ the choice⁴⁰⁰⁵ and best²⁸⁹⁶ of Lebanon,³⁸⁴⁴ all³⁶⁰⁵ that drink⁸³⁵⁴ water,⁴³²⁵ shall be comforted⁵¹⁶² in the nether parts⁸⁴⁸² of the earth.⁷⁷⁶

17  They¹⁹⁹² also¹⁵⁷¹ went down³³⁸¹ into hell⁷⁵⁸⁵ with⁸⁵⁴ him unto⁴¹³ them that be slain²⁴⁹¹ with the sword;²⁷¹⁹ and they that were his arm,²²²⁰ that dwelt³⁴²⁷ under his shadow⁶⁷³⁸ in the midst⁸⁴³² of the heathen.¹⁴⁷¹

18  To⁴¹³ whom⁴³¹⁰ art thou thus like^{1819 3602} in glory³⁵¹⁹ and in greatness¹⁴³³ among the trees⁶⁰⁸⁶ of Eden?⁵⁷³¹ yet shalt thou be brought down³³⁸¹ with⁸⁵⁴ the trees⁶⁰⁸⁶ of Eden⁵⁷³¹ unto⁴¹³ the nether parts⁸⁴⁸² of the earth:⁷⁷⁶ thou shalt lie⁷⁹⁰¹ in the midst⁸⁴³² of the uncircumcised⁶¹⁸⁹ with⁸⁵⁴ them that be slain²⁴⁹¹ by the sword.²⁷¹⁹ This¹⁹³¹ is Pharaoh⁶⁵⁴⁷ and all³⁶⁰⁵ his multitude,¹⁹⁹⁵ saith⁵⁰⁰² the Lord¹³⁶ GOD.³⁰⁶⁹

1 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἑνδεκάτῳ ἔτει ἐν τῷ τρίτῳ μηνὶ μιᾷ τοῦ μηνὸς ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων

2 υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου εἰπὸν πρὸς Φαραω βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου καὶ τῷ πλήθει αὐτοῦ τίνι ὡμοίωσας σεαυτὸν ἐν τῷ ὕψει σου

3 ἰδοὺ Ασσουρ κυπάρισσος ἐν τῷ Λιβάνῳ καὶ καλὸς ταῖς παραφυάσιν καὶ ὑψηλὸς τῷ μεγέθει εἰς μέσον νεφελῶν ἐγένετο ἡ ἀρχὴ αὐτοῦ

4 ὕδωρ ἐξέθρεψεν αὐτόν ἡ ἄβυσσος ὕψωσεν αὐτόν τοὺς ποταμοὺς αὐτῆς ἤγαγεν κύκλῳ τῶν φυτῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ συστέματα αὐτῆς ἐξαπέστειλεν εἰς πάντα τὰ ξύλα τοῦ πεδίου

5 ἕνεκεν τούτου ὑψώθη τὸ μέγεθος αὐτοῦ παρὰ πάντα τὰ ξύλα τοῦ πεδίου καὶ ἐπλατύνθησαν οἱ κλάδοι αὐτοῦ ἀφ᾽ ὕδατος πολλοῦ

6 ἐν ταῖς παραφυάσιν αὐτοῦ ἐνόσσευσαν πάντα τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ὑποκάτω τῶν κλάδων αὐτοῦ ἐγεννῶσαν πάντα τὰ θηρία τοῦ πεδίου ἐν τῇ σκιᾷ αὐτοῦ κατῴκησεν πᾶν πλῆθος ἐθνῶν

7 καὶ ἐγένετο καλὸς ἐν τῷ ὕψει αὐτοῦ διὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν κλάδων αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἐγενήθησαν αἱ ῥίζαι αὐτοῦ εἰς ὕδωρ πολύ

8 κυπάρισσοι τοιαῦται οὐκ ἐγενήθησαν ἐν τῷ παραδείσῳ τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ πίτυες οὐχ ὅμοιαι ταῖς παραφυάσιν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλάται οὐκ ἐγένοντο ὅμοιαι τοῖς κλάδοις αὐτοῦ πᾶν ξύλον ἐν τῷ παραδείσῳ τοῦ θεοῦ οὐχ ὡμοιώθη αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ κάλλει αὐτοῦ

9 διὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν κλάδων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐζήλωσεν αὐτὸν τὰ ξύλα τοῦ παραδείσου τῆς τρυφῆς τοῦ θεοῦ

10 διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει κύριος ἀνθ᾽ ὧν ἐγένου μέγας τῷ μεγέθει καὶ ἔδωκας τὴν ἀρχήν σου εἰς μέσον νεφελῶν καὶ εἶδον ἐν τῷ ὑψωθῆναι αὐτόν

11 καὶ παρέδωκα αὐτὸν εἰς χεῖρας ἄρχοντος ἐθνῶν καὶ ἐποίησεν τὴν ἀπώλειαν αὐτοῦ

12 καὶ ἐξωλέθρευσαν αὐτὸν ἀλλότριοι λοιμοὶ ἀπὸ ἐθνῶν καὶ κατέβαλον αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τῶν ὀρέων ἐν πάσαις ταῖς φάραγξιν ἔπεσαν οἱ κλάδοι αὐτοῦ καὶ συνετρίβη τὰ στελέχη αὐτοῦ ἐν παντὶ πεδίῳ τῆς γῆς καὶ κατέβησαν ἀπὸ τῆς σκέπης αὐτῶν πάντες οἱ λαοὶ τῶν ἐθνῶν καὶ ἠδάφισαν αὐτόν

13 ἐπὶ τὴν πτῶσιν αὐτοῦ ἀνεπαύσαντο πάντα τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ στελέχη αὐτοῦ ἐγένοντο πάντα τὰ θηρία τοῦ ἀγροῦ

14 ὅπως μὴ ὑψωθῶσιν ἐν τῷ μεγέθει αὐτῶν πάντα τὰ ξύλα τὰ ἐν τῷ ὕδατι καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκαν τὴν ἀρχὴν αὐτῶν εἰς μέσον νεφελῶν καὶ οὐκ ἔστησαν ἐν τῷ ὕψει αὐτῶν πρὸς αὐτὰ πάντες οἱ πίνοντες ὕδωρ πάντες ἐδόθησαν εἰς θάνατον εἰς γῆς βάθος ἐν μέσῳ υἱῶν ἀνθρώπων πρὸς καταβαίνοντας εἰς βόθρον

15 τάδε λέγει κύριος κύριος ἐν ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ κατέβη εἰς ᾅδου ἐπένθησεν αὐτὸν ἡ ἄβυσσος καὶ ἐπέστησα τοὺς ποταμοὺς αὐτῆς καὶ ἐκώλυσα πλῆθος ὕδατος καὶ ἐσκότασεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν ὁ Λίβανος πάντα τὰ ξύλα τοῦ πεδίου ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ ἐξελύθησαν

16 ἀπὸ τῆς φωνῆς τῆς πτώσεως αὐτοῦ ἐσείσθησαν τὰ ἔθνη ὅτε κατεβίβαζον αὐτὸν εἰς ᾅδου μετὰ τῶν καταβαινόντων εἰς λάκκον καὶ παρεκάλουν αὐτὸν ἐν γῇ πάντα τὰ ξύλα τῆς τρυφῆς καὶ τὰ ἐκλεκτὰ τοῦ Λιβάνου πάντα τὰ πίνοντα ὕδωρ

17 καὶ γὰρ αὐτοὶ κατέβησαν μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ εἰς ᾅδου ἐν τοῖς τραυματίαις ἀπὸ μαχαίρας καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ οἱ κατοικοῦντες ὑπὸ τὴν σκέπην αὐτοῦ ἐν μέσῳ τῆς ζωῆς αὐτῶν ἀπώλοντο

18 τίνι ὡμοιώθης κατάβηθι καὶ καταβιβάσθητι μετὰ τῶν ξύλων τῆς τρυφῆς εἰς γῆς βάθος ἐν μέσῳ ἀπεριτμήτων κοιμηθήσῃ μετὰ τραυματιῶν μαχαίρας οὕτως Φαραω καὶ τὸ πλῆθος τῆς ἰσχύος αὐτοῦ λέγει κύριος κύριος

1 Et factum est in anno undecimo, tertio mense, una mensis: factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:

2 Fili hominis, dic Pharaoni regi Ægypti et populo ejus: [Cui similis factus es in magnitudine tua?

3 ecce Assur quasi cedrus in Libano,
pulcher ramis, et frondibus nemorosus, excelsusque altitudine,
et inter condensas frondes elevatum est cacumen ejus.

4 Aquæ nutrierunt illum;
abyssus exaltavit illum:
flumina ejus manabant in circuitu radicum ejus,
et rivos suos emisit ad universa ligna regionis.

5 Propterea elevata est altitudo ejus super omnia ligna regionis,
et multiplicata sunt arbusta ejus,
et elevati sunt rami ejus præ aquis multis.

6 Cumque extendisset umbram suam,
in ramis ejus fecerunt nidos omnia volatilia cæli:
et sub frondibus ejus genuerunt omnes bestiæ saltuum,
et sub umbraculo illius habitabat cœtus gentium plurimarum.

7 Eratque pulcherrimus in magnitudine sua,
et in dilatatione arbustorum suorum:
erat enim radix illius juxta aquas multas.

8 Cedri non fuerunt altiores illo in paradiso Dei;
abietes non adæquaverunt summitatem ejus,
et platani non fuerunt æquæ frondibus illius:
omne lignum paradisi Dei non est assimilatum illi,
et pulchritudini ejus.

9 Quoniam speciosum feci eum,
et multis condensisque frondibus,
et æmulata sunt eum omnia ligna voluptatis
quæ erant in paradiso Dei.]

10 [Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus:
Pro eo quod sublimatus est in altitudine,
et dedit summitatem suam virentem atque condensam,
et elevatum est cor ejus in altitudine sua:

11 tradidi eum in manu fortissimi gentium:
faciens faciet ei:
juxta impietatem ejus ejeci eum.

12 Et succident eum alieni,
et crudelissimi nationum,
et projicient eum super montes:
et in cunctis convallibus corruent rami ejus,
et confringentur arbusta ejus in universis rupibus terræ:
et recedent de umbraculo ejus omnes populi terræ,
et relinquent eum.

13 In ruina ejus habitaverunt omnia volatilia cæli,
et in ramis ejus fuerunt universæ bestiæ regionis.

14 Quam ob rem non elevabuntur in altitudine sua omnia ligna aquarum,
nec ponent sublimitatem suam inter nemorosa atque frondosa,
nec stabunt in sublimitate sua omnia quæ irrigantur aquis:
quia omnes traditi sunt in mortem ad terram ultimam,
in medio filiorum hominum,
ad eos qui descendunt in lacum.

15 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus:
In die quando descendit ad inferos, induxi luctum:
operui eum abysso,
et prohibui flumina ejus,
et coërcui aquas multas:
contristatus est super eum Libanus,
et omnia ligna agri concussa sunt.

16 A sonitu ruinæ ejus commovi gentes
cum deducerem eum ad infernum
cum his qui descendebant in lacum:
et consolata sunt in terra infima
omnia ligna voluptatis egregia atque præclara in Libano,
universa quæ irrigabantur aquis.

17 Nam et ipsi cum eo descendent in infernum ad interfectos gladio:
et brachium uniuscujusque sedebit sub umbraculo ejus
in medio nationum.

18 Cui assimilatus es, o inclyte atque sublimis inter ligna voluptatis?
ecce deductus es cum lignis voluptatis ad terram ultimam:
in medio incircumcisorum dormies,
cum eis qui interfecti sunt gladio:
ipse est Pharao, et omnis multitudo ejus,
dicit Dominus Deus.]
