WEBVTT 00:02.200 --> 00:09.040 Chapter 31 And it came to pass, in the eleventh year, in the third month, 00:09.340 --> 00:12.980 in the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, 00:13.140 --> 00:18.560 saying, Son of man, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude, 00:19.520 --> 00:21.760 Whom art thou like in thy greatness? 00:22.840 --> 00:27.860 Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon, with fair branches, and with a 00:27.860 --> 00:33.420 shadowing shroud, and of an high stature, and his top was among the thick boughs. 00:33.960 --> 00:35.360 The waters made him great. 00:36.000 --> 00:40.320 The deep set him up on high with her rivers running round about his plants, 00:40.740 --> 00:44.400 and set out her little rivers unto all the trees of the field. 00:45.240 --> 00:50.140 Therefore his height was exalted above all the trees of the field, and his boughs 00:50.140 --> 00:54.780 were multiplied, and his branches became long because of the multitude of waters 00:54.780 --> 00:56.120 when he shot forth. 00:56.680 --> 01:03.080 All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches did 01:03.080 --> 01:08.460 all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow dwelt 01:08.460 --> 01:09.600 all great nations. 01:10.900 --> 01:14.500 Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches, 01:15.060 --> 01:16.800 for his root was by great waters. 01:17.320 --> 01:20.120 The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him. 01:20.800 --> 01:26.320 The fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like his 01:26.320 --> 01:31.520 branches, nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty. 01:32.600 --> 01:37.160 I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches, so that all the trees of 01:37.160 --> 01:39.700 Eden that were in the garden of God envied him. 01:40.500 --> 01:45.440 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Because thou hast lifted up thyself in 01:45.440 --> 01:51.260 height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted 01:51.260 --> 01:55.980 up in his height, I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty 01:55.980 --> 01:57.060 one of the heathen. 01:57.620 --> 01:59.160 He shall surely deal with him. 01:59.900 --> 02:02.100 I have driven him out for his wickedness. 02:03.040 --> 02:07.680 And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left 02:07.680 --> 02:09.240 him upon the mountains. 02:09.660 --> 02:14.560 And in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all 02:14.560 --> 02:15.900 the rivers of the land. 02:17.000 --> 02:22.060 And all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him. 02:22.720 --> 02:28.460 Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of heaven remain, and all the beasts of the 02:28.460 --> 02:30.680 field shall be upon his branches. 02:31.580 --> 02:36.040 To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their 02:36.040 --> 02:41.100 height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees 02:41.100 --> 02:44.560 stand up in their height, all that drink water. 02:46.280 --> 02:50.540 For they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, 02:51.020 --> 02:55.300 in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit. 02:55.920 --> 03:00.900 Thus saith the Lord God, in the day when he went down to the grave, I caused a 03:00.900 --> 03:05.380 mourning, I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, 03:05.720 --> 03:10.040 and the great waters were stayed, and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, 03:10.640 --> 03:13.260 and all the trees of the field fainted for him. 03:13.920 --> 03:19.220 I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell 03:19.220 --> 03:24.420 with them that descend into the pit, and all the trees of Eden, the choice and 03:24.420 --> 03:29.340 best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of 03:29.340 --> 03:29.720 the earth. 03:30.800 --> 03:35.560 They also went down into hell with him, unto them that be slain with the sword, 03:36.180 --> 03:41.520 and they that were his arm, that dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the 03:41.520 --> 03:41.880 heathen. 03:43.220 --> 03:47.880 To whom art thou thus like in glory, and in greatness among the trees of Eden? 03:48.760 --> 03:53.380 Yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the 03:53.380 --> 03:53.620 earth. 03:54.000 --> 03:58.080 Thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by 03:58.080 --> 03:58.620 the sword. 03:59.340 --> 04:03.360 This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord God.
