Ezekiel 31:6-8

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

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.
⁸ The cedars in the garden of God could not rival it,
    nor the fir trees equal its boughs;
the plane trees were as nothing
    compared with its branches;
no tree in the garden of God
    was like it in beauty.
