2 Kings 19:21-23

New Catholic Bible

“The virgin daughter of Zion
    despises you and laughs at you.
The daughter of Jerusalem
    tosses her head at you.
²² Whom have you taunted and blasphemed?
    Against whom have you raised your voice
and lifted your eyes in pride?
    Against the Holy One of Israel.
²³ You have taunted the Lord through your messengers by saying,
    ‘I have come up to the heights of the mountains
    with many chariots, to the peaks of Lebanon.
I have cut down tall cedars,
    choice fir trees.
I have entered its most remote stand,
    its finest forests.
