Ezekiel 31:3-5

New International Version

³ Consider Assyria,^(A) once a cedar in Lebanon,^(B)
    with beautiful branches overshadowing the forest;
it towered on high,
    its top above the thick foliage.^(C)
4 The waters^(D) nourished it,
    deep springs made it grow tall;
their streams flowed
    all around its base
and sent their channels
    to all the trees of the field.^(E)
5 So it towered higher^(F)
    than all the trees of the field;
its boughs increased
    and its branches grew long,
    spreading because of abundant waters.^(G)
