Ezekiel 31:5-7

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵ So it towered high
    above all the trees of the forest;
its boughs grew large
    and its branches long,
    from abundant water in its shoots.
⁶ All the birds of the air
    made their nests in its boughs;
under its branches all the beasts of the field
    brought forth their young;
and under its shadow
    dwelt all great nations.
⁷ It was beautiful in its greatness,
    in the length of its branches;
for its roots went down
    to abundant waters.
