← Isaiah 37:23	Isaiah 37:24 (KJV)	Isaiah 37:25 →
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.	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.	I have digged, and drunk water; and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of the besieged places.
