- In the eleventh year, in the third month, on the first of the month, the word of the LORD came to me saying,
- "Son of man, say to Pharaoh king of Egypt and to his hordes, 'Whom are you like in your greatness?
- 'Behold, Assyria was a cedar in Lebanon With beautiful branches and forest shade, And very high, And its top was among the clouds.
- 'The waters made it grow, the deep made it high. With its rivers it continually extended all around its planting place, And sent out its channels to all the trees of the field.
- 'Therefore its height was loftier than all the trees of the field And its boughs became many and its branches long Because of many waters as it spread them out.
