“Thus were the visions of mine head in my bed; I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was great.”
“Thus were the visions of my head upon my bed: I saw, and, behold, a tree in the midst of the earth; and the height thereof was great. ”
“Thus were the visions of my head on my bed: I saw, and behold, a tree in the midst of the earth; and its height was great.”
“Here are the visions of my mind while I was on my bed. While I was watching, there was a tree in the middle of the land. It was enormously tall.”
“I saw in the vision of my head upon my bed, and behold a watcher, and a holy one came down from heaven.”
“On my bed I saw a vision: there was a tree in the middle of the earth, and it was very high.”
“Thus were the visions of mine head in my bed; I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was great.”
This was the vision of my head on my bed. I looked, and behold, a tree in the middle of the earth, and its height was exceedingly great.
The tree was great and strong, and its height reached up to heaven. It could be seen all the way to the ends of the entire earth.
Its leaves were very beautiful, and its fruit was very abundant, and in it was food for the whole world. Under it, animals and beasts were dwelling, and in its branches, the birds of the sky were sheltered, and from it, all flesh was fed.
I saw in the vision of my head upon my blanket, and behold, a watcher and a holy one descended from heaven.
He 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.
Nevertheless, 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.
Let his heart be changed from being human, and let the heart of a wild animal be given to him, and let seven periods of time pass over him.
