Ezekiel 31:9 in Context — Ezekiel 31

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.

10 C’est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Parce qu’il avait une tige élevée, Parce qu’il lançait sa cime au milieu d’épais rameaux, Et que son cœur était fier de sa hauteur,

11 Je l’ai livré entre les mains du héros des nations, Qui le traitera selon sa méchanceté; je l’ai chassé.
