Ezekiel 31:10-12

Common English Bible

Consider the fate of those who tower high!
When it allowed its branches to reach up among the clouds,
    it became arrogant.
¹¹ So I handed it over
to the most powerful nation,
    who continually acted treacherously against it.
I banished it!
¹² Foreigners, the worst of the nations, cut it down
    and left it to lie among the hills.
All its branches fell among the valleys,
    and its boughs were broken off in the earth’s deep ravines.
All the earth’s peoples departed from its shade and abandoned it.
