Ezekiel 31:7 in Context — Ezekiel 31

5 C’est pourquoi sa tige s’élevait au-dessus de tous les arbres des champs, Ses branches avaient multiplié, ses rameaux s’étendaient, Par l’abondance des eaux qui l’avaient fait pousser.

6 Tous les oiseaux du ciel nichaient dans ses branches, Toutes les bêtes des champs faisaient leurs petits sous ses rameaux, Et de nombreuses nations habitaient toutes à son ombre.

7 Il était beau par sa grandeur, par l’étendue de ses branches, Car ses racines plongeaient dans des eaux abondantes.

8 Les cèdres du jardin de Dieu ne le surpassaient point, Les cyprès n’égalaient point ses branches, Et les platanes n’étaient point comme ses rameaux; Aucun arbre du jardin de Dieu ne lui était comparable en beauté.

9 Je l’avais embelli par la multitude de ses branches, Et tous les arbres d’Éden, dans le jardin de Dieu, lui portaient envie.
