Ezekiel 31:5-7

New International Reader's Version

⁵ So it grew higher
    than any other tree in the fields.
It grew more limbs.
    Its branches grew long.
    They spread because they had plenty of water.
⁶ All the birds in the sky
    made their nests in its limbs.
All the wild animals
    had their babies under its branches.
All the great nations
    lived in its shade.
⁷ Its spreading branches
    made it majestic and beautiful.
Its roots went down deep
    to where there was plenty of water.
