trees

⁸And he will be like a tree planted beside waters, which sends out its roots to moist soil. And it will not fear when the heat arrives. And its leaves will be green. And in the time of drought, it will not be anxious, nor will it cease at any time to bear fruit.

³And he will be like a tree that has been planted beside running waters, which will provide its fruit in its time, and its leaf will not fall away, and all things whatsoever that he does will prosper.

⁷A tree has hope: if it has been cut, it turns green again, and its branches spring forth.

³³Then the trees of the forest will give praise before the Lord. For he comes to judge the earth.

¹⁷So then, every good tree produces good fruit, and the evil tree produces evil fruit.

¹⁰I saw in the vision of my head upon my blanket, and behold, a watcher and a holy one descended from heaven. ¹¹He cried out loudly, and he said this: “Cut down the tree and prune its branches; shake off its leaves and scatter its fruits; let flee the beasts, which are under it, and the birds from its branches. ¹²Nevertheless, leave the stump of its roots in the earth, and let it be bound with a band of iron and brass among the plants, which are close by, and let it be touched by the dew of heaven, and let its place be with the wild animals among the plants of the earth.

⁹And from the soil the Lord God produced every tree that was beautiful to behold and pleasant to eat. And even the tree of life was in the midst of Paradise, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

¹⁰But I, like a fruitful olive tree in the house of God, have hoped in the mercy of God unto eternity, and forever and ever.

¹⁴Blessed are those who wash their robes in the blood of the Lamb. So may they have a right to the tree of life; so may they enter through the gates into the City.

¹⁸She is a tree of life to those who overtake her, and he who shall take hold of her is blessed.
