22 this is the word that the Lord has spoken concerning him:

“‘She despises you, she scorns you—
    (A)the virgin daughter of Zion;
she wags her head behind you—
    the daughter of Jerusalem.
23 “‘Whom have you mocked and reviled?
    Against whom have you raised your voice
and lifted your eyes to the heights?
    Against (B)the Holy One of Israel!
24 By your servants you have mocked the Lord,
    and you have said, (C)With my many chariots
I have gone up the heights of the mountains,
    to the far recesses of Lebanon,
(D)to cut down its tallest cedars,
    its choicest cypresses,
to come to its remotest height,
    its most fruitful forest.
