2 Kings 19:21-23

Common English Bible

²¹This is the message that the Lord has spoken against him:

The young woman, Daughter Zion, despises you and mocks you;
    Daughter Jerusalem shakes her head behind your back.
²²Whom did you insult and ridicule?
    Against whom did you raise your voice
        and pridefully lift your eyes?
    It was against the holy one of Israel!
²³You’ve insulted the Lord with your messengers;
    you said, ‘I, with my many chariots,
        have gone up to the highest mountains,
        to the farthest reaches of Lebanon.
I have cut down its tallest cedars,
    the best of its pine trees.
I have reached its most remote lodging place,
    its best forest.
