Ezekiel 31:13-15
New American Standard Bible
13 All the (A)birds of the sky will nest on its fallen trunk, and all the animals of the field will [a]rest on its fallen branches, 14 so that all the trees by the waters will not be exalted in their stature, nor put their tops among the [b]clouds, nor will any of their [c]well-watered mighty ones stand straight in their height. For they have all been turned over to death, to the (B)earth beneath, among [d]mankind, [e]with those who go down to the pit.”
15 ‘This is what the Lord God says: “On the day when it went down to Sheol I (C)caused mourning; I closed the [f]deep over it and held back its rivers. And its many waters were stopped up, and I made Lebanon mourn for it, and all the trees of the field wilted away on account of it.

Ezekiel 31:13-15
New International Version
13 All the birds settled on the fallen tree, and all the wild animals lived among its branches.(A) 14 Therefore no other trees by the waters are ever to tower proudly on high, lifting their tops above the thick foliage. No other trees so well-watered are ever to reach such a height; they are all destined(B) for death,(C) for the earth below, among mortals who go down to the realm of the dead.(D)
15 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: On the day it was brought down to the realm of the dead I covered the deep springs with mourning for it; I held back its streams, and its abundant waters were restrained. Because of it I clothed Lebanon with gloom, and all the trees of the field withered away.(E)
