23 You have mocked the Lord[a] through[b] your messengers.(A)
You have said, ‘With my many chariots(B)
I have gone up to the heights of the mountains,
to the far recesses of Lebanon.
I cut down its tallest cedars,
its choice cypress trees.
I came to its farthest outpost,
its densest forest.
24 I dug wells
and drank water in foreign lands.
I dried up all the streams of Egypt(C)
with the soles of my feet.’

25 Have you not heard?(D)
I designed it long ago;
I planned it in days gone by.
I have now brought it to pass,(E)
and you have crushed fortified cities
into piles of rubble.
