Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by great waters.
|
The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chesnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty.

I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that [were] in the garden of God, envied him.
