Daniel 4:12

Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream of a Great Tree

11The tree grew large and strong; its top reached the sky, and it was visible to the ends of the earth. 12Its leaves were beautiful, its fruit was abundant, and upon it was food for all. Under it the beasts of the field found shelter, in its branches the birds of the air nested, and from it every creature was fed.
