انهي لاءِ تہ پاڻي جي ڀرسان بيٺل سڀني وڻن مان ڪوبہ پاڻ کي قد ۾ نہ وڌائي، ۽ نہ پنهنجي چوٽي ٿلهن ڏارن ۾ رکي، ۽ انهن ۾ جيڪي زور وارا آهن، يعني جي پاڻي پيئن ٿا، سي سڀ ڊگها ٿي نہ بيهي رهن: ڇالاءِ جو اُهي سڀ موت جي حوالي ڪيا ويا آهن، ۽ زمين جي هيٺين ڀاڱن ۾، ماڻهن جي وچ ۾ انهن سان گڏ مري کڏ ۾ ٿا وڃن.
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

Living It Out Today
