|
||
|
|
* **All the birds of the heavens** - "All the birds that fly in the sky"
|
||
|
|
* **rested on its trunk** - This can be translated as "lived on the remains of the cedar" or "lived on the dead wood from the cedar that was laying on the ground"
|
||
|
|
* **trunk** - The trunk is a very thick part of the tree that comes out of the ground and holds up the rest of the tree.

|
||
|
|
* **for no other tree that drank up water would ever again grow that tall** - "and no other trees that get a lot of water will ever grow that tall again"
|
||
