Isaiah 37:22-24

EasyEnglish Bible

“The holy people of Zion laugh at you!
    They think that you are useless.
Yes, the people of Jerusalem shake their heads
    as you run away.
²³ Who do you think it is that you have insulted?
    Who have you shouted at?
    Who have you looked at so proudly?
The answer is the Holy God of Israel!
²⁴ You have sent your servants
    to insult the Lord God.
You have said, ‘I have taken all my chariots
    and I have gone up high mountains,
    the highest mountains in Lebanon.
I have cut down its tall cedar trees,
    and I have cut down its best pine trees.
I went up to its highest places,
    and I went far into its forests.
