Wail, you juniper, for the cedar has fallen; the stately trees are ruined! Wail, oaks of Bashan; the dense forest has been cut down!

Juniper trees, cry out! The cedar trees have fallen down. The majestic trees are destroyed. Cry out, you oak trees of Bashan! The thick forest has been cut down.

Wail, O cypress, for the cedar has fallen, for the glorious trees are ruined! Wail, oaks of Bashan, for the thick forest has been felled!

Weep, you cypress trees, for all the ruined cedars; the most majestic ones have fallen. Weep, you oaks of Bashan, for the thick forests have been cut down.

Wail, cypress, for the cedar has fallen; the glorious trees are destroyed! Wail, oaks of Bashan, for the stately forest has fallen!

Wail, O cypress, for the cedar has fallen, Because the mighty trees are ruined. Wail, O oaks of Bashan, For the thick forest has come down.

Wail, O fir- tree, for the cedar is fallen, because the goodly ones are destroyed: wail, O ye oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest is come down.

Wail, cypress, for the cedar has fallen; the glorious trees are destroyed! Wail, oaks of Bashan, for the stately forest has fallen!

“ Son of man, say to Pharaoh king of Egypt and to his hordes,‘ Whom are you like in your greatness?Behold, Assyria was a cedar in Lebanon With beautiful branches and forest shade, And very high, And its top was among the clouds.

For if they do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”

They also went down with it to Sheol to those who were slain by the sword; and those who were its strength lived in its shade among the nations.

“ Son of man, set your face toward the south, and speak prophetically against the south and prophesy against the forest land of the Negev,

Woe to those who are carefree in Zion, And to those who feel secure on the mountain of Samaria, The dignitaries of the foremost of nations, To whom the house of Israel comes.

Until the Spirit is poured out upon us from on high, And the wilderness becomes a fertile field, And the fertile field is considered as a forest.Then justice will dwell in the wilderness, And righteousness will remain in the fertile field.And the work of righteousness will be peace, And the service of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.Then my people will live in a peaceful settlement, In secure dwellings, and in undisturbed resting places;And it will hail when the forest comes down, And the city will be utterly laid low.

Behold, the Lord, the God of armies, will lop off the branches with terrifying power; Those also who are tall in stature will be cut down, And those who are lofty will be brought low.He will cut down the thickets of the forest with an iron axe, And Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.

Are you better than No amon, Which was situated by the canals of the Nile, With water surrounding her, Whose rampart was the sea, Whose wall consisted of the sea?Ethiopia was her might, Egypt too, without limits. Put and Lubim were among her helpers.Yet she became an exile, She went into captivity; Also her small children were smashed to pieces At the head of every street; They cast lots for her honorable men, And all her great men were bound with shackles.You too will become drunk, You will be hidden. You too will search for a refuge from the enemy.All your fortifications are fig trees with ripe fruit— When shaken, they fall into the eater’s mouth.Behold, your people are women in your midst! The gates of your land are opened wide to your enemies; Fire consumes your gate bars.Draw for yourself water for a siege! Strengthen your fortifications! Go into the clay and tread the mortar! Take hold of the brick mold!There fire will consume you, The sword will cut you down; It will consume you as the creeping locust consumes a crop. Multiply yourself like the creeping locust, Multiply yourself like the migratory locust.You have made your traders more numerous than the stars of heaven— The creeping locust sheds its skin and flies away.Your courtiers are like the migratory locust. Your officials are like a swarm of locusts Settling in the stone shelters on a cold day. The sun rises and they flee, And the place where they are is not known.Your shepherds are sleeping, O king of Assyria; Your officers are lying down. Your people are scattered on the mountains And there is no one to gather them.There is no relief for your collapse, Your wound is incurable. All who hear about you Will clap their hands over you, For upon whom has your evil not come continually?

For the Lord of armies will have a day of reckoning Against everyone who is arrogant and haughty, And against everyone who is lifted up, That he may be brought low.And it will be against all the cedars of Lebanon that are lofty and lifted up, Against all the oaks of Bashan,Against all the lofty mountains, Against all the hills that are lifted up,Against every high tower, Against every fortified wall,Against all the ships of Tarshish And against all the delightful ships.And the pride of humanity will be humbled And the arrogance of people will be brought low; And the Lord alone will be exalted on that day,
