*
This is the word which the LORD hath spoken concerning him ;
The virgin ,
the daughter of Zion ,
hath despised thee ,
and laughed thee to scorn ;
the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee .
*
Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed ?
and against whom hast thou exalted thy voice ,
and lifted up thine eyes on high ?
even against the Holy One of Israel Yisra #
el #.
*
By thy servants hast thou reproached the Lord ,
and hast said ,
By the multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains ,
to the sides of Lebanon ;
and I will cut down the tall cedars thereof ,
and the choice fir trees thereof :
and I will enter into the height of his border ,
and the forest of his Carmel .
*
I have digged ,
and drunk water ;
and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of the besieged places .
*
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 defenced cities into ruinous heaps .
*
Therefore their inhabitants were of small power ,
they were dismayed and confounded :
they were as the grass of the field ,
and as the green herb ,
as the grass on the housetops ,
and as corn blasted before it be grown up .
*
But I know thy abode ,
and thy going out ,
and thy coming in ,
and thy rage against me .
*
Because thy rage against me ,
and thy tumult sha #
anan #,
is come up into mine ears ,
therefore will I put my hook in thy nose ,
and my bridle in thy lips ,
and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest .
