8 Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden;(A) and there he put the man he had formed. 9 The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees(B) that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life(C) and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.(D)
10 A river(E) watering the garden flowed from Eden;(F) from there it was separated into four headwaters.

Ezekiel 31:8-9
New International Version
8 The cedars(A) in the garden of God
could not rival it,
nor could the junipers
equal its boughs,
nor could the plane trees(B)
compare with its branches—
no tree in the garden of God
could match its beauty.(C)
9 I made it beautiful
with abundant branches,
the envy of all the trees of Eden(D)
in the garden of God.(E)
Ezekiel 31:8-9

8 The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty.
9 I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him.

So that all the trees of Eden envied it,
That were in the garden of God.’
