Exegesis
The final phrase betsel daliyyotav tishkenah {בְּצֵל דָּלִיּוֹתָיו תִּשְׁכֹּנָּה | bə-ṣél dā-lî-yō-tāw tiš-kō-nāh} ‘in the shade of its branches they will nest’ uses construct-state shading for protective imagery. English rendering preserves the Hebrew sequence and parallel structure to maintain emphasis and unity of the promise.
In context — Ezekiel 17:23
On the high mountain of Israel I will plant it, and it will send out branches and produce fruit and will become a mighty cedar ; and beneath it will dwell every bird of every wing, and in the shade of its branches they will nest.
