By the hand of your servants you have reproached the Lord, and said, By my many chariots I have come up to the tops of mountains, the sides of Lebanon, and I cut down its tall cedars, its choice firs; and I will go to heights of its end, the forest of its Carmel.
I made the nations shake at the sound of his fall when I made him go down to Sheol with those going down into the Pit. And all the trees of Eden shall be cheered in the earth’s lowest parts, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink waters.
Howl, fir tree, for the cedar has fallen, because the majestic trees have been destroyed. Howl, O oaks of Bashan, for the inaccessible forest has come down.
