Romani from Romanian (E Romaii Biblia 2020 (Kăldărărihko))
kaste na mai phuteol či iekh andal kašt pašal paia lengă učimasa, thai te na mai vazden pehko gor ji kal norea, kaste na mai phuteon le stejarea le tindearde le paiestar le učimasa lendar; kă sa sî dine limos mullimahkă, andel andraimata la phuweakă, maškar le šave le manušengă, andekhthan kolença kai ulen ande groapa.
What Does This Mean?
Ezekiel 31:14 says that God will humble all proud trees by the water, showing that no one can be arrogant. God is speaking, warning that pride leads to downfall, and everyone will face death.
Explained for Children
Imagine a forest where tall trees think they're better than the others. God says that even these tall trees will be brought down, just like everyone else. It's like saying no one is too big to be humble.
Historical Background
Ezekiel wrote this around 591 BCE while in exile in Babylon. The message was directed to the people of Israel and the surrounding nations, warning against pride and reminding of God's sovereignty.
Living It Out Today
In today's world, this verse can remind business leaders not to become arrogant with their success. Just like the trees, they too will face challenges and need to stay humble.
