Ezekiel 31:14

---

← Ezekiel 31:13	Ezekiel 31:14 (KJV)	Ezekiel 31:15 →
Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:	To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.	Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him.
