Verse text unavailable
Through your servants you have taunted the Lord,and you have said:“With my many chariotsI have ascendedto the heights of the mountains,to the remote peaks of Lebanon.I have cut down its tallest cedars,the finest of its cypresses.I have reached its farthest heights,the densest of its forests.
The glory of Lebanon will come to you—its cypress, elm, and boxwood together—to adorn the place of My sanctuary,and I will glorify the place of My feet.
