Because of it I clothed Lebanon with gloom, and all the trees of the field withered away.^(A)

¹⁶ I made the nations tremble^(A) at the sound of its fall when I brought it down to the realm of the dead to be with those who go down to the pit. Then all the trees^(B) of Eden,^(C) the choicest and best of Lebanon, the well-watered trees, were consoled^(D) in the earth below.^(E)
