“ ‘Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Katika siku ile mwerezi uliposhushwa chini kaburini* nilizifunika chemchemi zenye maji mengi kwa maombolezo: Nilivizuia vijito vyake na wingi wa maji yake nikauzuia. Kwa sababu yake niliivika Lebanoni huzuni, nayo miti yote ya shambani ikanyauka.
Ezekiel 31:15 in English
Ezekiel 31:15 · Berean Standard Bible
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘On the day it was brought down to Sheol, I caused mourning. I covered the deep because of it; I held back its rivers; its abundant waters were restrained. I made Lebanon mourn for it, and all the trees of the field fainted because of it.
Context
13Ndege wote wa angani wakakaa kwenye ule mti ulioanguka na wanyama pori wote wakakaa katikati ya vitawi vyake. 14Kamwe hakutakuwa na miti mingine kando ya hayo maji itakayorefuka zaidi ya huo, vilele vyake vikiwa juu ya majani yote ya miti. Hakuna miti mingine, hata kama imekunywa maji vizuri namna gani, itakayofikia urefu huo. Yote mwisho wake ni kifo, na kuingia ardhini, kama vile ilivyo kwa wanadamu, pamoja na wale waendao shimoni. 15“ ‘Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi asemalo: Katika siku ile mwerezi uliposhushwa chini kaburini* nilizifunika chemchemi zenye maji mengi kwa maombolezo: Nilivizuia vijito vyake na wingi wa maji yake nikauzuia. Kwa sababu yake niliivika Lebanoni huzuni, nayo miti yote ya shambani ikanyauka. 16Niliyafanya mataifa yatetemeke kwa kishindo cha kuanguka kwake wakati nilipoushusha chini kaburini pamoja na wale washukao shimoni. Ndipo miti yote ya Edeni, miti iliyo bora kuliko yote na iliyo mizuri sana ya Lebanoni, miti yote ile iliyokunywa maji vizuri, ilifarijika hapa duniani. 17Wale walioishi katika kivuli chake, wale walioungana naye miongoni mwa mataifa, nao pia walikuwa wamezikwa pamoja naye, wakiungana na wale waliouawa kwa upanga.
