Isaiah 37:23-25

Common English Bible

²³ Whom did you insult and ridicule?
    Against whom did you raise your voice
        and look on with disdain?
    It was against the holy one of Israel!
²⁴ With your servants, you’ve insulted the Lord;
    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.
²⁵ I have dug wells,
    have drunk water in foreign lands.^[a]
With my own feet, I dried up all of Egypt’s streams.”
