Kings IV 19:23

23 By thy messengers thou has reproached the Lord, and hast said, I will go up with the multitude of my chariots, to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Libanus, and I have cut down the height of his cedar, his choice cypresses; and I have come into the midst of the forest and of Carmel.

Kings IV 19:23 In-Context

21 This the word which the Lord has spoken against him; The virgin daughter of Sion has made light of thee, and mocked thee; the daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head at thee.

22 Whom hast thou reproached, and whom hast thou reviled? and against whom hast thou lifted up thy voice, and raised thine eyes on high? against the Holy One of Israel?

23 By thy messengers thou has reproached the Lord, and hast said, I will go up with the multitude of my chariots, to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Libanus, and I have cut down the height of his cedar, his choice cypresses; and I have come into the midst of the forest and of Carmel.

24 I have refreshed , and have drunk strange waters, and I have dried up with the sole of my foot all the rivers of fortified places.

25 I have brought about , I have brought it to a conclusion; and it is come to the destruction of the bands of warlike prisoners, strong cities.
