CUTTING DOWN THE TREES

Here is an interesting little verse, tucked away in Isaiah 14:8.
Even the junipers and the cedars of Lebanon
    gloat over you and say,
“Now that you have been laid low,
    no one comes to cut us down.”


Of course it is poetic! But on the other hand, --- what is it telling us?  I am no "tree hugger". But I wonder, what implications are in this verse about God's Creation? Can we put this together with other verses that encourage us to manage creation well?
Just wondering.
