Isaiah 37:22-36 This is the word which God hath spoken concerning him; The virgin daughter of Zion despiseth thee and mocketh thee; the daughter of Jerusalem shaketh her head at thee.

Ottley⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² This is the word which God hath spoken concerning him; The virgin daughter of Zion despiseth thee and mocketh thee; the daughter of Jerusalem shaketh her head at thee. ²³ Whom hast thou reproached and provoked? or against whom hast thou lift up thy voice? what, hast thou not lifted up thine eyes on high against the Holy One of Israel? ²⁴ For by messengers thou hast reproached the Lord; for thou saidst, By the multitude of my chariots have I gone up to the height of the mountains, and to the utmost parts of Lebanon, and have cut down the height of his cedar, and the beauty of his cypress, and have entered into the height of the portion of his forest, | ²⁵ And have made a mound, and have dried up waters, and every gathering of water. ²⁶ Hast thou not heard long since of these things that I have done? from ancient days have I ordained it, and now have I shown it forth, to make nations in strong places desolate, and them that dwell in strong cities. ²⁷ I slackened their hands, and they were withered up, and became as green grass upon house-tops, and as wild couch-grass. ²⁸ But now I know thy resting place, and thy going out, and thy coming in. ²⁹ But thy rage with which thou ragedst, and thy bitterness, have come up toward me, and I will put a muzzle on thy nose, and a bit in thy lips, and will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest. ³⁰ And this is the sign to thee; eat, for this year, what thou hast sown, and in the second year that which is left; and in the third year sow and reap ye, and plant vineyards, and ye shall eat the fruit thereof. ³¹ And there shall be they that are left in Judah, they shall strike root downward, and bear seed upward. ³² For they that are left shall go forth from Jerusalem, and they that are saved from mount Zion; the jealousy of the Lord of Hosts will do this. ³³ Therefore thus saith the Lord against the king of the Assyrians, He shall not come into this city, nor cast a spear against it, nor bring up a shield against it, nor compass it with a trench, ³⁴ But by the way that he came, by it shall he return. Thus saith the Lord, ³⁵ I will hold a shield before this city, to save it, for mine own sake, and for David my servant's sake. ³⁶ And there went forth an angel of the Lord, and destroyed out of the camp of the Assyrians an hundred and fourscore (and) five thousand; and (men) arising early found all the dead bodies.
