Ezekiel 31:15-17
New American Standard Bible
15 ‘This is what the Lord God says: “On the day when it went down to Sheol I (A)caused mourning; I closed the [a]deep over it and held back its rivers. And its many waters were stopped up, and I made Lebanon mourn for it, and all the trees of the field wilted away on account of it. 16 I made the nations (B)quake from the sound of its fall when I made it (C)go down to Sheol with those who go down to the pit; and all the [b]well-watered trees of Eden, the choicest and best of (D)Lebanon, were (E)comforted in the earth beneath. 17 They also (F)went down with it to Sheol to those who were (G)slain by the sword; and those who were its [c]strength lived (H)in its shade among the nations.
