Ezekiel 31:6-9 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

6. Every kind of bird built nests in its branches;The wild animals bore their young in its shelter;The nations of the world rested in its shade.

7. How beautiful the tree was —So tall, with such long branches.Its roots reached down to the deep-flowing streams.

8. No cedar in God's garden could compare with it.No fir tree ever had such branches,And no plane tree such boughs.No tree in God's own garden was so beautiful.

9. I made it beautiful, with spreading branches.It was the envy of every tree in Eden, the garden of God.
