2 Kings 19:23-25

Authorized (King James) Version

²³ By thy messengers thou hast reproached the Lord,
and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots
I am come up to the height of the mountains,
to the sides of Lebanon,
and will cut down the tall cedar trees thereof,
and the choice fir trees thereof:
and I will enter into the lodgings of his borders,
and into the forest of his Carmel.
²⁴ I have digged and drunk strange waters,
and with the sole of my feet have I dried up
all the rivers of besieged places.
²⁵ Hast thou not heard long ago how I have done it,
and of ancient times that I have formed it?
now have I brought it to pass,
that thou shouldest be to lay waste
fenced cities into ruinous heaps.
