Ezekiel 31:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches,
14 So that none of all the trees by the waters shall be exalted by their height, neither shall shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither shall their leaves stand up in their height, which drink so much water: for they are all delivered unto death in the nether parts of the earth in the midst of the children of men among them that go down to the pit.
15 Thus saith the Lord God, In the day when he went down to hell, I caused them to mourn, and I [a]covered the deep for him, and I did restrain the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted.
