22 this is the word which the Lord has spoken against him:

The virgin daughter of Zion
    has despised you and mocked you;
the daughter of Jerusalem
    has shaken her head at you.
23 Whom have you reproached and blasphemed?
    And against whom have you raised your voice,
and lifted up your eyes haughtily?
    Against the Holy One of Israel!
24 Through your servants
    you have reproached the Lord
and have said,
    ‘With my many chariots
I have come up to the heights of the mountains,
    to the remotest parts of Lebanon;
and I cut down its tall cedars,
    and its choice fir trees;
and I will go to its highest peak,
    its thickest forest.
