Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a forest-like shade, and of high stature; and its top was among the thick boughs.

(Set) the trumpet to thy mouth. As an eagle (he cometh) against the house of Jehovah, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law.
