Ezekiel 31:11

11 I turned it over to a world-famous leader to call its evil to account. I'd had enough.

Ezekiel 31:11 In-Context

9 I made it beautiful, a work of art in limbs and leaves, The envy of every tree in Eden, every last tree in God's garden.'"
10 Therefore, God, the Master, says, "'Because it skyscrapered upwards, piercing the clouds, swaggering and proud of its stature,
11 I turned it over to a world-famous leader to call its evil to account. I'd had enough.
12 Outsiders, unbelievably brutal, felled it across the mountain ranges. Its branches were strewn through all the valleys, its leafy boughs clogging all the streams and rivers. Because its shade was gone, everybody walked off. No longer a tree - just a log.
13 On that dead log birds perch. Wild animals burrow under it.
