2 Kings 19:21-23
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
21 [a]This is the word the Lord has spoken concerning him:
She despises you, laughs you to scorn,
the virgin daughter Zion!
Behind you she wags her head,
daughter Jerusalem.
22 Whom have you insulted and blasphemed,
at whom have you raised your voice
And lifted up your eyes on high?
At the Holy One of Israel!
23 Through the mouths of your messengers
you insulted the Lord when you said,
‘With my many chariots I went up
to the tops of the peaks,
to the recesses of Lebanon,
To cut down its lofty cedars,
its choice cypresses;
I reached to the farthest shelter,
the forest ranges.

Daughter Jerusalem
tosses her head(E) as you flee.
22 Who is it you have ridiculed and blasphemed?(F)

And you have said,(H)
“With my many chariots(I)
I have ascended the heights of the mountains,
the utmost heights of Lebanon.
I have cut down(J) its tallest cedars,
the choicest of its junipers.
I have reached its remotest parts,
the finest of its forests.
