Alkitab Terjemahan Baru

Orang-orang asing, yaitu yang paling ganas di antara bangsa-bangsa, akan menebang dia dan membiarkannya; di atas gunung-gunung dan di semua lembah cabang-cabangnya berjatuhan dan di semua alur sungai negeri itu ranting-rantingnya berpatahan dan semua bangsa di bumi pergi lari dari naungannya dan membiarkan dia.

Alkitab Terjemahan Lama
Pada masa itu iapun terbantun oleh orang yang bengis, oleh bangsa yang lalim, lalu dibiarkannya akan dia dengan terhantar begitu, maka cabang-cabangnyapun gugurlah pada segala bukit dan segala lembah dan ranting-rantingnyapun terhantar dengan patahnya pada tepi segala anak sungai di tanah itu; maka undurlah segala bangsa yang di atas bumi dari bawah naungnya, dibiarkannya akan dia.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off,.... Cut off the boughs and branches of this cedar, and cut him down to the ground; that is, utterly destroyed him, his empire and monarchy: these "strangers" were the Medes, who lived in a country distant from Assyria; and "the terrible of the nations", the cruel and merciless Chaldeans, the soldiers of the king of Babylon's army; see Ezekiel 30:11:

and have left him upon the mountains, like a tree cut down there, and its boughs and branches lopped off, which roll down from thence into the valleys, and by the rivers of water signifying his depression from a high and exalted state to a very low one, as follows:

and in all the valley his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; signifying that many provinces and countries under his dominion were broken off, and by force taken away from him; or they broke off and revolted of themselves, and either set up for themselves, and recovered their former power and authority; or gave up themselves to the conqueror. The Targum is,

"and in all valleys his army fell, and his auxiliaries were scattered by all the rivers of the land:''

and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him: those that joined themselves to his empire, put themselves under his protection, or sought his friendship and alliance, now withdrew themselves from him, and left him alone to shift for himself; as frightened birds and beasts will do, when a tree is cut down and fallen, in the boughs or under the shadow of which they dwelt. The Targum paraphrases it,

"from the shadow of his kingdom.''

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Assyria’s fall.

Ezekiel 31:11

More accurately: Therefore I will deliver him, etc ... he shall surely deal with him. I have driven him out, etc.

Ezekiel 31:14

Their trees - Rather, as in the margin, “standing unto themselves” meaning “standing in their own strength.” The clause will then run thus: “Neither all that drink water stand up” in their own strength. “All that drink water” means mighty princes to whom wealth and prosperity flow in. The Egyptians owed everything to the waters of the Nile. The substance is, that Assyria’s fall was decreed in order that the mighty ones of the earth might learn not to exalt themselves in pride or to rely on themselves, seeing that they must share the common lot of mortality.
