New International Version
Isaiah 37:24-26
New International Version
24 By your messengers
you have ridiculed the Lord.
And you have said,
‘With my many chariots(A)
I have ascended the heights of the mountains,
the utmost heights(B) of Lebanon.(C)
I have cut down its tallest cedars,
the choicest of its junipers.(D)
I have reached its remotest heights,
the finest of its forests.
25 I have dug wells in foreign lands[a]
and drunk the water there.
With the soles of my feet
I have dried up(E) all the streams of Egypt.(F)’

Isaiah 37:24-26
King James Version
24 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.
25 I have digged, and drunk water; and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of the besieged places.
26 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.
