Ezekiel 31:17-18
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
17 They too will go down to Sheol,
to those slain by the sword,
Its allies[a] who dwelt
in its shade among the nations.
18 To whom among the trees of Eden
do you compare in glory and greatness?
You will be brought down
with the trees of Eden to the underworld,
And lie among the uncircumcised,
with those slain by the sword.
Such is Pharaoh and all his hordes—
oracle of the Lord God.
