[1] In the eleventh year, in the third month, in the first day of the month, Yahweh’s word came to me, saying, [2] “Son of man, tell Pharaoh king of Egypt and his multitude:
‘Whom are you like in your greatness?
[3] Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon
with beautiful branches,
and with a forest-like shade,
of high stature;
and its top was among the thick boughs.
[4] The waters nourished it.
The deep made it to grow.
Its rivers ran all around its plantation.
It sent out its channels to all the trees of the field.
[5] Therefore its stature was exalted above all the trees of the field;
and its boughs were multiplied.
Its branches became long by reason of many waters,
when it spread them out.
[6] All the birds of the sky made their nests in its boughs.
Under its branches, all the animals of the field gave birth to their young.
All great nations lived under its shadow.
[7] Thus it was beautiful in its greatness,
in the length of its branches;
for its root was by many waters.
[8] The cedars in the garden of God could not hide it.
The cypress trees were not like its branches.
The pine trees were not like its branches;
nor was any tree in the garden of God like it in its beauty.
[9] I made it beautiful by the multitude of its branches,
so that all the trees of Eden,
that were in the garden of God, envied it.’ [10] “Therefore thus said the Lord Yahweh: ‘Because he is exalted in stature, and he has set his top among the thick branches, and his heart is lifted up in his height, [11] I will deliver him into the hand of the mighty one of the nations. He will surely deal with him. I have driven him out for his wickedness. [12] Foreigners, the tyrants of the nations, have cut him off and have left him. His branches have fallen on the mountains and in all the valleys, and his boughs are broken by all the watercourses of the land. All the peoples of the earth have gone down from his shadow and have left him. [13] All the birds of the sky will dwell on his ruin, and all the animals of the field will be on his branches, [14] to the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves in their stature, and don’t set their top among the thick boughs. Their mighty ones don’t stand up on their height, even all who drink water; for they are all delivered to death, to the lower parts of the earth, among the children of men, with those who go down to the pit.’ [15] “The Lord Yahweh says: ‘In the day when he went down to Sheol,ⓘ I caused a mourning. I covered the deep for him, and I restrained its rivers. The great waters were stopped. I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him. [16] I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to Sheolⓘ with those who descend into the pit. All the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, were comforted in the lower parts of the earth. [17] They also went down into Sheol with him to those who are slain by the sword; yes, those who were his arm, who lived under his shadow in the middle of the nations. [18] “‘To whom are you thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? Yet you will be brought down with the trees of Eden to the lower parts of the earth. You will lie in the middle of the uncircumcised, with those who are slain by the sword.“‘This is Pharaoh and all his multitude,’ says the Lord Yahweh.”

Pharaoh’s Greatness

[1] And it came to pass in the eleventh H259 H6240 year, H8141 in the third H7992 month, in the first H259 day of the month, H2320 that the word H1697 of the Lord H3068 came unto me, saying, H559 [2] Son H1121 of man, H120 speak H559 unto H413 Pharaoh H6547 king H4428 of Egypt, H4714 and to his multitude; H1995 Whom art thou like H1819 in thy greatness? H1433 [3] Behold, the Assyrian H804 was a cedar H730 in Lebanon H3844 with fair H3303 branches, H6057§ and with a shadowing H6751 shroud, H2793 and of an high H1362 stature; H6967 and his top H6788 was among the thick boughs. H5688 [4] The waters H4325 made him great, H1431§ the deep H8415 set him up§ on high H7311 H853 with her rivers H5104 running H1980 round about H5439 his plants, H4302 and sent out H7971 her little rivers H8585§ unto H413 all H3605 the trees H6086 of the field. H7704 [5] Therefore his height H6967 was exalted H1361 above all the trees H6086 of the field, H7704 and his boughs H5634 were multiplied, H7235 and his branches H6288 became long H748 because of the multitude H7227 of waters, H4325 when he shot forth. H7971§ [6] All H3605 the fowls H5775 of heaven H8064 made their nests H7077 in his boughs, H5589 and under his branches H6288 did all the beasts H2416 of the field H7704 bring forth their young, H3205 and under his shadow H6738 dwelt H3427 all H3605 great H7227 nations. H1471 [7] Thus was he fair H3302 in his greatness, H1433 in the length H753 of his branches: H1808 for H3588 his root H8328 was by great H7227 waters. H4325 [8] The cedars H730 in the garden H1588 of God H430 could not hide H6004 him: the fir trees H1265 were not like H1819 his boughs, H5589 and the chesnut trees H6196 were not like his branches; H6288 nor any tree H6086 in the garden H1588 of God H430 was like H1819 unto H413 him in his beauty. H3308 [9] I have made H6213 him fair H3303 by the multitude H7230 of his branches: H1808 so that all the trees H6086 of Eden, H5731 that were in the garden H1588 of God, H430 envied H7065 him. [10] Therefore thus saith H559 the Lord H136 God; H3069 Because thou hast lifted up H1361 thyself in height, H6967 and he hath shot up H5414 his top H6788 among the thick boughs, H5688 and his heart H3824 is lifted up H7311 in his height; H1363 [11] I have therefore delivered H5414 him into the hand H3027 of the mighty one H410 of the heathen; H1471 he shall surely H6213 deal H6213 with him:§ I have driven him out H1644 for his wickedness. H7562 [12] And strangers, H2114 the terrible H6184 of the nations, H1471 have cut him off, H3772 and have left H5203 him: upon the mountains H2022 and in all the valleys H1516 his branches H1808 are fallen, H5307 and his boughs H6288 are broken H7665 by all the rivers H650 of the land; H776 and all the people H5971 of the earth H776 are gone down H3381 from his shadow, H6738 and have left H5203 him. [13] Upon H5921 his ruin H4658 shall all the fowls H5775 of the heaven H8064 remain, H7931 and all the beasts H2416 of the field H7704 shall be upon his branches: H6288 [14] to the end that none of all the trees H6086 by the waters H4325 exalt H1361 themselves for their height, H6967 neither shoot up H5414 H853 their top H6788 among the thick boughs, H5688 neither their trees H352 stand up H5975§ in their height, H1363 all H3605 that drink H8354 water: H4325 for H3588 they are all delivered H5414 unto H413 death, H4194 to the nether parts H8482 of the earth, H776 in the midst H8432 of the children H1121 of men, H120 with them that go down H3381 to the pit. H953 [15] Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 God; H3069 In the day H3117 when he went down H3381 to the grave H7585 I caused a mourning: H56 I covered H3680 H853 the deep H8415 for him, and I restrained H4513 the floods H5104 thereof, and the great H7227 waters H4325 were stayed: H3607 and I caused Lebanon H3844 to mourn H6937§ for him, and all the trees H6086 of the field H7704 fainted H5969 for him. [16] I made the nations H1471 to shake H7493 at the sound H6963 of his fall, H4658 when I cast him down H3381 to hell H7585 with H854 them that descend H3381 into the pit: H953 and all the trees H6086 of Eden, H5731 the choice H4005 and best H2896 of Lebanon, H3844 all H3605 that drink H8354 water, H4325 shall be comforted H5162 in the nether parts H8482 of the earth. H776 [17] They also went down H3381 into hell H7585 with him unto them that be slain H2491 with H854 the sword; H2719 and they that were his arm, H2220 that dwelt H3427 under his shadow H6738 in the midst H8432 of the heathen. H1471 [18] To whom art thou thus like H1819 in glory H3519 and in greatness H1433 among the trees H6086 of Eden? H5731 yet shalt thou be brought down H3381 with H854 the trees H6086 of Eden H5731 unto H413 the nether parts H8482 of the earth: H776 thou shalt lie H7901 in the midst H8432 of the uncircumcised H6189 with them that be slain H2491 by the sword. H2719 This is Pharaoh H6547 and all his multitude, H1995 saith H5002 the Lord H136 God. H3069
