A wszakoż pień korzenia jego zostawcie w ziemi, a niech będzie związan żelazną i miedzianą związką miedzy chwastem polnym, a niech będzie pokropion rosą niebieską, cząstka jego niechaj będzie z zwierzęty miedzy chwastem ziemie.
Gałęzie jego piękne, a owoc jego obfity, i pokarm dla wszystkich był na niem; pod sobą dawało cień zwierzowi polnemu, a na gałęziach jego mieszkało ptastwo niebieskie, a z niego miało pożywienie wszelkie ciało.
Jego liść był piękny, jego owoc obfity, a pokarmu na nim starczyłoby dla wszystkich. Zwierzęta polne szukały pod nim cienia, w jego gałęziach gnieździły się ptaki, wszystkiemu, co żyje, zapewniało sytość.
Gałęzie jego piękne, a owoc jego obfity, i pokarm dla wszystkich był na niem; pod sobą dawało cień zwierzowi polnemu, a na gałęziach jego mieszkało ptastwo niebieskie, a z niego miało pożywienie wszelkie ciało.
Jego liście były piękne, jego owoc obfity i na nim był pokarm dla wszystkich. Pod nim znajdowały cień zwierzęta polne, na jego gałęziach mieszkało ptactwo niebieskie i z niego miało pożywienie wszelkie ciało.
Lecz jego pień korzenny pozostawcie w ziemi, w obręczy żelaznej i miedzianej na niwie zielonej; niech rosa niebieska go zrasza i niech ma udział ze zwierzętami polnymi w ziołach ziemi!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The leaves thereof were fair,.... Or "branches" i, as some; and design either the provinces belonging to his empire, which were very large and flourishing; or the governors of them under him, as Saadiah, who made no small and contemptible figure; his princes were altogether kings:
and the fruit thereof much; great revenues from all parts of the empire were brought to him:
and in it was meat for all; the produce of the several countries, and the trade carried on in them, brought in a sufficient livelihood to all the inhabitants:
the beasts of the field had shadow under it; the inhabitants of the several Heathenish nations under him, and even those that were most savage, were protected in their lives and properties by him; so princes should be a screen, a protection to their subjects:
and the fowls of the heaven dwelt in the boughs thereof; which Saadiah interprets of the Israelites, in opposition to the foreign nations, comparable to the beasts of the field:
and all flesh was fed of it; all his subjects shared in the good things his victorious arms brought into his empire; all enriched, or however made comfortable, and had a sufficiency of food and raiment; so that there was no reason to complain of him as oppressive to his subjects.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The leaves thereof were fair - Were beautiful. That is, they were abundant, and green, and there were no signs of decay. Everything indicated a vigorous and healthy growth - a tree in its full beauty and majesty - a striking emblem of a monarch in his glory.
And the fruit thereof much - It was loaded with fruit - showing that the tree was in its full vigour.
And in it was meat for all - Food for all, for so the word meat was formerly used. This would indicate the dependence of the multitudes on him whom the tree represented, and would also denote that he was a liberal dispenser of his favors.
The beasts of the field had shadow under it - Found a grateful shade under it in the burning heat of noon - a striking emblem of the blessings of a monarchy affording protection, and giving peace to all under it.
And the fowls of the heaven dwelt in the boughs thereof - The fowls of the air. They built their nests and reared their young there undisturbed, another striking emblem of the protection afforded under the great monarchy designed to be represented.
And all flesh was fed of it - All animals; all that lived. It furnished protection, a home, and food for all. Bertholdt renders this, âall men.â In the Greek Codex Chisianus there is the following version or paraphrase given of this passage: âIts vision was great, its top reached to the heaven, and its breadth (ÎºÏ ÍÏÎ¿Ï kutos) to the clouds - they filled the things (ÏÎ±Ì ta) under the heaven - there was a sun and moon, they dwelt in it, and enlightened all the earth.â
