10. In my mind, as I lay in bed, I saw a vision:At the center of the earth was a towering tree.
11. The tree grew in size and strength;it was as high as the sky;it could be seen from every corner of the earth.
12. Its leaves were beautiful, its fruit abundant;it had enough food for everyone.Wild animals took shade under it;birds nested in its branches.All living things lived off that tree.
13. “In my mind, as I lay in bed, I saw another vision: A holy watcher came down from heaven.
14. He proclaimed loudly:‘Cut down the tree and shear off its branches!Strip its leaves and scatter its fruit!The creatures should flee from its shelter;the birds should take flight from its branches.
