ULT This happened so that no other trees that grow by the waters will lift up their foliage to the height of the tallest trees, and that no other trees that grow beside the waters will reach up to that height. All of them have been assigned to death, to the earth below, among the children of humanity, with those that go down to the pit.

UST As a result, no other tree, even if the tree has plenty of water, will ever grow to such great height, or lift its top above the branches higher than other trees. They will all certainly die and decay; they will go to the place of the dead; they will go to the grave.’”


BSB This happened so that no other trees by the waters would become great in height and set their tops among the clouds, and no other well-watered trees would reach them in height. For they have all been consigned to death, to the depths of the earth, among the mortals who descend to the Pit.’

WEB to the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves in their stature, and don’t set their top among the thick boughs. Their mighty ones don’t stand up on their height, even all who drink water; for they are all delivered to death, to the lower parts of the earth, among the children of men, with those who go down to the pit.’

NET For this reason no watered trees will grow so tall; their tops will not reach into the clouds, nor will the well-watered ones grow that high. For all of them have been appointed to die in the lower parts of the earth; they will be among mere mortals, with those who descend to the pit.

LSV In order that none of the trees of the waters
May become haughty because of their stature,
Nor give their foliage between thickets,
Nor any drinking waters stand up to them in their haughtiness,
For all of them are given up to death,
To the lower earth,
In the midst of the sons of men,
To those going down to the pit.

FBV This was in order that no other trees growing by the water would grow up so high and have their tops reach the clouds. This was so that no other trees, however much water they had, would be as tall as them, For they all will die and go down into earth, just like human beings who go down into the grave.

T4T The result of what I have done is that no other trees, even if they have plenty of water, will ever grow very high and become proud, and lift their tops above the branches of other trees. I do not want any other tree to grow high like that cedar tree did; trees will all certainly die and decay in the ground, like people die and go down to their graves.’

LEBThis occurred so that all of the trees with abundant water will not become tall, and they will not set their treetop between[fn]their thick foliage,[fn] andso thatall of the trees that are abundantly watered[fn]will not stand up to them[fn] in their tallness, for all of them, they have been givenover to death, to the world below in the midst of mortals,[fn] tothe people going down to the grave.”[fn]

BBE In order that no trees by the waters may be lifted up in their growth, putting their tops among the clouds; and that no trees which are watered may take their place on high: for they are all given up to death, to the lowest parts of the earth among the children of men, with those who go down to the underworld.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

31:1-18 Ezekiel called on the Egyptians to compare themselves to Assyria, which was like a great tree in Eden (31:9). If that tree was felled and sent down to the underworld, how did Egypt, whose glory could never compare to Assyria’s, think it could stand?


UTNuW Translation Notes:

(Some words not found in UHB: therefore which/who not lofty in/on/at/with,height,their all/each/any/every tree/wood_of waters and=not set DOM tops,their to/towards between clouds and=not reach trees,them in/on/at/with,height,their all/each/any/every drink water that/for/because/then/when all,they given_over to_the,death to/towards earth/land below in_the=middle sons_of humankind to/towards go_down pit )

Alternate translation: “that no other trees that get a lot of water”

Some Bibles translate this as “will set their tops among the clouds.” Alternate translation: “will grow taller than the branches of other trees”

(Occurrence 0) that no other trees that grow beside the waters will reach up to that height

(Some words not found in UHB: therefore which/who not lofty in/on/at/with,height,their all/each/any/every tree/wood_of waters and=not set DOM tops,their to/towards between clouds and=not reach trees,them in/on/at/with,height,their all/each/any/every drink water that/for/because/then/when all,they given_over to_the,death to/towards earth/land below in_the=middle sons_of humankind to/towards go_down pit )

Alternate translation: “that no other trees that get a lot of water will ever grow that tall again”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) All of them have been assigned to death, to the earth below

(Some words not found in UHB: therefore which/who not lofty in/on/at/with,height,their all/each/any/every tree/wood_of waters and=not set DOM tops,their to/towards between clouds and=not reach trees,them in/on/at/with,height,their all/each/any/every drink water that/for/because/then/when all,they given_over to_the,death to/towards earth/land below in_the=middle sons_of humankind to/towards go_down pit )

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word death, you can express the same idea with the verb “die.” Alternate translation: “For I made it so that they all will die and go deep under the ground” (See also: figs-abstractnouns)

(Occurrence 0) among the children of humanity, with those that go down to the pit

(Some words not found in UHB: therefore which/who not lofty in/on/at/with,height,their all/each/any/every tree/wood_of waters and=not set DOM tops,their to/towards between clouds and=not reach trees,them in/on/at/with,height,their all/each/any/every drink water that/for/because/then/when all,they given_over to_the,death to/towards earth/land below in_the=middle sons_of humankind to/towards go_down pit )

Alternate translation: “to be with those people who have died and gone down to the grave”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) the pit

(Some words not found in UHB: therefore which/who not lofty in/on/at/with,height,their all/each/any/every tree/wood_of waters and=not set DOM tops,their to/towards between clouds and=not reach trees,them in/on/at/with,height,their all/each/any/every drink water that/for/because/then/when all,they given_over to_the,death to/towards earth/land below in_the=middle sons_of humankind to/towards go_down pit )

This refers to the grave; because the grave was thought to be the entrance to the world of the dead, the pit also represents that world. See how you translated this in Ezekiel 26:20.
