Ezekiel 31:11-13

Contemporary English Version

¹¹ So I, the Lord God, will reject the tree and hand it over to a foreign ruler, who will punish it for its wickedness. ¹² Cruel foreigners will chop it down and leave it wherever it falls. Branches and broken limbs will be scattered over the mountains and in the valleys. The people living in the shade of those branches will go somewhere else. ¹³ Birds will then nest on the stump of the fallen tree, and wild animals will trample its branches.
