'Boughs' in the Bible

Now on the first day you shall take for yourselves the foliage of beautiful trees, palm branches and boughs of leafy trees and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God for seven days.

When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs again; it shall be for the alien, for the orphan, and for the widow.

The mountains were covered with its shadow,And the cedars of God with its boughs.

Behold, the Lord, the God of hosts, will lop off the boughs with a terrible crash;Those also who are tall in stature will be cut downAnd those who are lofty will be abased.

On the high mountain of Israel I will plant it, that it may bring forth boughs and bear fruit and become a stately cedar. And birds of every kind will nest under it; they will nest in the shade of its branches.

‘Therefore its height was loftier than all the trees of the fieldAnd its boughs became many and its branches longBecause of many waters as it spread them out.

‘All the birds of the heavens nested in its boughs,And under its branches all the beasts of the field gave birth,And all great nations lived under its shade.

‘The cedars in God’s garden could not match it;The cypresses could not compare with its boughs,And the plane trees could not match its branches.No tree in God’s garden could compare with it in its beauty.

Alien tyrants of the nations have cut it down and left it; on the mountains and in all the valleys its branches have fallen and its boughs have been broken in all the ravines of the land. And all the peoples of the earth have gone down from its shade and left it.
