LEB(i)
10 Now these were the visions of my head as I was lying on my bed: I was ⌊gazing⌋* and, look, a tree was in the midst of the earth, and its height was exalted.
11 The tree grew and it became strong, and its height reached to heaven,* and ⌊it was visible to the end of the whole earth⌋.*
12 Its foliage was beautiful, and its fruit abundant, and in it was provision for all. Under it the animals* of the field sought shade, and in its branches the birds of heaven* nested, and from it all the living beings were fed.
13 " 'I was looking in the vision of my head as I lay on my bed, and look, a watcher,* and a holy one, came down from heaven.
14 He cried ⌊aloud⌋* and so he said:
"Cut down the tree and chop off its branches; shake off its foliage and scatter its fruit. Let the animals flee from under it, and the birds from its branches. 15 But the stump of its roots leave in the earth, ⌊along with⌋* a band of iron and bronze; leave it in the grass of the field. And in* the dew of heaven let it* be watered, and with the animals* let his lot be in the grass of the earth.
