10. In the holy tabernacle I ministered before him; And so was I established in Sion.
11. In the beloved city likewise he gave me rest; And in Jerusalem was my authority.
12. And I took root in a people that was glorified, Even in the portion of the Lord’s own inheritance.
13. I was exalted like a cedar in Libanus, And as a cypress tree on the mountains of Hermon.
14. I was exalted like a palm tree on the sea shore, And as rose plants in Jericho, And as a fair olive tree in the plain; And I was exalted as a plane tree.
15. As cinnamon and aspalathus, I have given a scent of perfumes; And as choice myrrh, I spread abroad a pleasant odour; As galbanum, and onyx, and stacte, And as the fume of frankincense in the tabernacle.
16. As the terebinth I stretched out my branches; And my branches are branches of glory and grace.
