2 Kings 19:26-28

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁶while their inhabitants, shorn of strength,
    are dismayed and confounded;
they have become like plants of the field
    and like tender grass,
like grass on the housetops,
    blighted before it is grown.

²⁷“But I know your rising^[a] and your sitting,
    your going out and coming in,
    and your raging against me.
²⁸Because you have raged against me
    and your arrogance has come to my ears,
I will put my hook in your nose
    and my bit in your mouth;
I will turn you back on the way
    by which you came.
