8 The cedars in the garden of Godcould not match it;the fir treeswere not like its boughs,and the chestnut treeswere not like its branches;nor was any tree in the garden of Godlike it in its beauty.
9 I made it beautiful with an abundance of branches,so that all the trees of Eden envied it,that were in the garden of God.
10 Therefore, thus says the Lord God: Because it is lifted up in height and has shot up its top among the clouds, and its heart is arrogant in its height,

12 Aliens, the tyrants of the nations have cut it off and left it. Upon the mountains and in all the valleys its branches have fallen, and its boughs have been broken by all the rivers of the land. And all the peoples of the earth have gone down from its shadow and have left it.
13 Upon its ruin all the fowl of the heavens shall remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon its fallen branches
