Isaiah 37:24-27
24ThroughH3027 your servantsH5650 you have tauntedH2778 the LordH136, and you have saidH559: “With my manyH7230 chariotsH7393 IH589 have ascendedH5927 to the heightsH4791 of the mountainsH2022, to the remote peaksH3411 of LebanonH3844. I have cut downH3772 its tallestH6967 cedarsH730, the finestH4005 of its cypressesH1265.1 I have reachedH935 its farthestH7093 heightsH4791, the densestH3759 of its forestsH3293.25IH589 have dug wellsH6979 and drunkH8354 foreign2 watersH4325. With the solesH3709 of my feetH6471 I have dried upH2717 allH3605 the streamsH2975 of EgyptH4693.”
26Have you notH3808 heardH8085?Long agoH7350 I ordained itH6213;in daysH3117 of oldH6924 I planned itH3335.Now I haveH6258 brought it to passH935H1961,that you should crushH7582 fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892into pilesH1530 of rubbleH5327.27Therefore their inhabitantsH3427, devoidH7116 of powerH3027,are dismayedH2865 and ashamedH954.They are likeH1961 plantsH6212 in the fieldH7704,tenderH3419 green shootsH1877,grassH2682 on the rooftopsH1406,scorchedH77093 beforeH6440 it is grownH7054.
