22 " 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I myself will take a shoot¹ from the very top of a cedar and plant it; I will break off a tender sprig from its topmost shoots and plant it on a high and lofty mountain.² 23 On the mountain heights³ of Israel I will plant it; it will produce branches and bear fruit⁴ and become a splendid cedar. Birds of every kind will nest in it; they will find shelter in the shade of its branches.⁵ 24 All the trees of the field⁶ will know that I the LORD bring down⁷ the tall tree and make the low tree grow tall. I dry up the green tree and make the dry tree flourish.⁸ " 'I the LORD have spoken, and I will do it.⁹' "
