    10These were the visions of my head upon my bed: I saw, and behold, a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height was great.

    11The tree grew and was strong, and its height reached unto heaven, and its sight to the end of all the earth.

    12Its leaves were beautiful, and its fruit abundant, and in it was food for all; the beasts of the field had shade under it, and the birds of the heaven dwelt in its branches, and all flesh was fed from it.

    13I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and behold, a watcher, a holy one, came down from heaven.

    3Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with beautiful branches, and with a sheltering canopy, and of high stature; and its top was among the thick boughs.

    4The waters made it great, the deep set it up on high with its rivers running around its plants, and sent out its little rivers to all the trees of the field.

    5Therefore its height was exalted above all the trees of the field, and its boughs were multiplied, and its branches became long because of the multitude of waters as it spread out.

    6All the birds of heaven made their nests in its boughs, and under its branches all the beasts of the field gave birth to their young, and under its shadow all great nations dwelt.

    7Thus it was beautiful in its greatness, in the length of its branches, for its root was by great waters.

    8The cedars in the garden of God could not hide it; the fir trees were not like its boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like its branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like it in beauty.

    9I made it beautiful by the multitude of its branches, so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied it.

    13On its ruin all the birds of the heavens will dwell, and all the beasts of the field will be on its branches:

    14So that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, nor set their top among the thick boughs, nor any tree stand up to its height, all that drink water; for they are all delivered to death, to the lower parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with those who go down to the pit.

    6And it grew and became a spreading vine of low stature, whose branches turned toward him, and its roots were under him: so it became a vine and brought forth branches and shot forth sprigs.
