Ezekiel 31:14
Ezekiel 31:14 in Multiple Translations
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.’
To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.
to the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves in their stature, neither set their top among the thick boughs, nor that their mighty ones stand up in their height, even all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.
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.
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.
So that none of all the trees by the waters shalbe exalted by their height, neither shall shoote vp their toppe among the thicke boughes, neither shall their leaues stand vp in their height, which drinke so much water: for they are all deliuered vnto death in the nether partes of the earth in the middes of the children of men among them that goe downe to the pit.
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 unto them in their haughtiness, For all of them are given up to death, Unto the earth — the lower part, In the midst of the sons of men, Unto those going down to the pit.
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.’
To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their hight, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their hight, all that drink water: for they are all delivered to death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.
For which cause none of the trees by the waters shall exalt themselves for their height: nor shoot up their tops among the thick branches and leaves, neither shall any of them that are watered stand up in their height: for they are all delivered unto death to the lowest parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down into the pit.
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.’

Context — Egypt Will Fall like Assyria
12Foreigners, the most ruthless of the nations, cut it down and left it. Its branches have fallen on the mountains and in every valley; its boughs lay broken in all the earth’s ravines. And all the peoples of the earth left its shade and abandoned it.
13All the birds of the air nested on its fallen trunk, and all the beasts of the field lived among its boughs.
14This 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.’
15This 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. 16I made the nations quake at the sound of its downfall, when I cast it down to Sheol with those who descend to the Pit. Then all the trees of Eden, the choicest and best of Lebanon, all the well-watered trees, were consoled in the earth below.Cross References

Ezekiel 31:14 Summary
Ezekiel 31:14 teaches us that God humbles those who become proud and self-exalting, just like the tree in the parable that was cut down. This reminds us to stay humble and dependent on God, recognizing that all our strength and nourishment come from Him (as seen in Jeremiah 17:7-8). The 'waters' and 'the Pit' in this verse symbolize the world's systems and the place of the dead, respectively, emphasizing the importance of choosing life in God over the fleeting powers of this world. By staying grounded in God's Word and humble in our hearts, we can avoid the pitfalls of pride and find true life and strength in Him (see Psalm 1:1-3).
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the phrase 'set their tops among the clouds' mean in Ezekiel 31:14?
This phrase is a metaphor for pride and arrogance, as seen in similar passages like Isaiah 2:12, where God humbles those who exalt themselves against Him.
Why does God mention 'the depths of the earth' and 'the Pit' in Ezekiel 31:14?
The 'Pit' refers to the place of the dead, as described in Psalm 28:1 and Numbers 16:30-33, emphasizing the finality of judgment for those who reject God.
How does this verse relate to the overall message of Ezekiel 31?
Ezekiel 31:14 serves as a conclusion to the parable of the fallen tree, highlighting God's sovereignty and the consequences of pride, as seen in the downfall of the Assyrian Empire in Ezekiel 31:3-13.
What is the significance of 'the waters' in Ezekiel 31:14?
The 'waters' likely represent the sources of power and nourishment, similar to Revelation 17:1, where the prostitute sits on many waters, symbolizing the world's systems and false spiritualities that can lead people away from God.
Reflection Questions
- What are the 'waters' in my life that I rely on for strength and nourishment, and how can I ensure they are not leading me away from God?
- In what ways can I humble myself and avoid the pride that leads to a great fall, as described in Ezekiel 31:14 and Proverbs 16:18?
- How can I apply the lesson of Ezekiel 31:14 to my own life, recognizing that all earthly powers and systems are subject to God's judgment and will ultimately pass away?
- What does it mean for me to 'reach them in height' in my spiritual walk, and how can I strive for maturity in Christ without becoming proud or self-sufficient?
Gill's Exposition on Ezekiel 31:14
To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height,.... The end proposed by the Lord in the destruction of the king of Assyria, and the use to be made of it, is
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Ezekiel 31:14
To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Ezekiel 31:14
To the end; all this is designed to be a warning to mortals. All the trees, i: e. the emperors, potentates, kings, or rich flourishing states. By the waters; planted most commodiously, and furnished most abundantly with power and wealth. Exalt themselves; grow proud, because they are high, shoot out tops above all the thick boughs, their neighbours. This caution against pride and self-exalting is three times repeated, that all, especially great men, and this proud king of Egypt, to whom this parable is propounded, should be humble. For they are all delivered unto death; for if by office they are gods, yet by nature they are men, and by the decree of God, who cannot die, these gods must, as men, die, be laid in the grave, forgotten like other men, like the children of mean men, for death and the grave make no distinction. Be not proud, God will pull down such; be humble, you must die.
Trapp's Commentary on Ezekiel 31:14
Ezekiel 31:14 To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.Ver. 14. To the end that none of all the trees.] This is the use men should make of God’ s heavy judgments upon others. This man’ s father Sennacherib had a statue set up in Egypt, saith Herodotus, with this inscription, Let him that looketh upon my misery learn to be modest and to fear God. Neither their trees stand up in their height.] Neque stent in seipsis; neither stand in themselves, because of their height. Magna repente ruunt: in te stas et non stets, said the oracle to Augustine, Thou standest on thine own bottom, thou wilt surely down. For they are all delivered uuto death.] Without difference, pell mell, lords and lowlies together; as the poet also singeth, “ Sub tua purpurei veniunt vestigia reges, Deposito luxu, turba cum paupere mixti; Omnia mors aequat. ” - Claudian. Lib. ii.
Ellicott's Commentary on Ezekiel 31:14
(14) Stand up in their height.—The original is more closely followed by the margin, stand upon themselves for their height, and the thought is that the trees (princes) shall no longer rely on their own strength and be infatuated by the prosperity which has been given them. All that drink water is only a poetical expression for the trees. (Comp. Ezekiel 31:16.) In the constant mention of water and rivers throughout this parable there may be a covert allusion to Egypt, made fertile by the irrigation of the Nile. To the nether parts of the earth.—See Note on Ezekiel 26:20. In the latter part of this verse the figurative is again exchanged for literal language.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Ezekiel 31:14
Verse 14. To the end that none of all the trees] Let this ruin, fallen upon Egypt, teach all the nations that shall hear of it to be humble, because, however elevated, God can soon bring them down; and pride and arrogance, either in states or individuals, have the peculiar abhorrence of God. Pride does not suit the sons of men; it made devils of angels, and makes fiends of men.
Cambridge Bible on Ezekiel 31:14
14. The downfall of Pharaoh is a chastisement for his pride and a warning. for their height] Or, in their. It is not merely pride of heart because of the height, it is the height itself, the shooting up their top among the clouds—aspiring to a greatness belonging only to heaven—that is the sin. thick boughs] the clouds.neither their trees stand up] Rather: and that their mighty ones (those of the nations) stand not up (or, forward, i.e. display themselves) in their height. The phrase “all that drink water” is a circumlocution for “trees,” fed by water. nether parts of the earth] i.e. Sheòl, the place of the dead, deep down in the earth, or under it. the children of men] i.e. men in general, common men. The meaning is hardly that expressed in Psalms 49:10, that all die, the wise as well as the fool and the brutish, and that the “mighty ones” have no privilege over common men in this respect; the death referred to here is rather the violent death, the death of them slain with the sword, attended with no funeral honours. Cf. ch. Ezekiel 32:17 seq. them that go down] them that are gone down to the pit. So everywhere. The allegory of the tree here passes over into the reality.
Whedon's Commentary on Ezekiel 31:14
14. Neither their trees — Rather, R.V., “nor that their mighty ones.” All of these majestic trees that drink water — these proud kingdoms of men — are soon to fall to the earth and drop into “Sheol.”
