3. Think about what happened to Assyria. Once it was like a cedar tree in Lebanon. It had beautiful branches that provided shade for the forest. It grew very high. Its top was above all of the leaves.
4. The waters fed it. Deep springs made it grow tall. Their streams flowed all around its base. They made their way to all of the trees in the fields.
5. So it grew higher than any other tree in the fields. It grew more limbs. Its branches grew long. They spread because they had plenty of water.
