23:037:023 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.

23:037:024 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.

23:037:025 I have digged, and drunk water; and with the sole of my feet
           have I dried up all the rivers of the besieged places.

23:037:026 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.

23:037:027 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.

23:037:028 But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in,
           and thy rage against me.

23:037:029 Because thy rage against me, and thy tumult, 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.

23:037:030 And this shall be a sign unto thee, Ye shall eat this year
           such as groweth of itself; and the second year that which
           springeth of the same:  and in the third year sow ye, and reap,
           and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof.

23:037:031 And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall
           again take root downward, and bear fruit upward: 

23:037:032 For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and they that
           escape out of mount Zion:  the zeal of the lord of hosts shall
           do this.

23:037:033 Therefore thus saith the lord concerning the king of Assyria,
           He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there,
           nor come before it with shields, nor cast a bank against it.

23:037:034 By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and
           shall not come into this city, saith the lord.

23:037:035 For I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and
           for my servant David’s sake.

23:037:036 Then the angel of the lord went forth, and smote in the camp
           of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: 
           and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were
           all dead corpses.
