24 Through your servants you have [a]reproached the Lord,
And you have said, ‘With my many chariots I came up to the heights of the mountains,
To the remotest parts of (A)Lebanon;
And I cut down its tall (B)cedars and its choice cypresses.
And I will go to its [b]highest peak, its thickest (C)forest.
25 I dug wells and drank waters,
And (D)with the sole of my feet I dried up
All the rivers of [c]Egypt.’
26 (E)Have you not heard?
Long ago I did it;
From days of old I (F)formed it.
Now (G)I have brought it to pass,
That (H)you should devastate fortified cities into (I)ruinous heaps.
