Isaiah 37:23-25

Easy-to-Read Version

²³ But who was it that you insulted and made fun of?
    Who was it that you spoke against?
You were speaking against the Holy One of Israel.
    You acted like you were great and he was nothing.
²⁴ You sent your officers to insult the Lord.
    This is what you said:
“I took my many chariots up the high mountains
    deep inside Lebanon.
I cut down its tallest cedars
    and its best fir trees.
I have been on its highest mountain
    and deep inside its forests.
²⁵ I dug wells and drank water from new places.
    I dried up the rivers of Egypt
    and walked where the water was.”
