2 Kings 19:26 CPDV

²⁴  I have cut down. And I drank foreign waters, and I dried up all the enclosed waters with the steps of my feet.'

²⁵  But have you not heard what I have done from the beginning? From the days of antiquity, I have formed it, and now I have brought it to be. And fortified cities of fighting men will become piles of ruins.

²⁶  And whoever may settle in these, they have trembled, with a weak hand, and they have been confounded. They have become like the hay of the field, and like weeds sprouting on the rooftops, which dry up before they reached maturity.

²⁷  Your habitation, and your exit, and your entrance, and your way, I knew beforehand, along with your fury against me.

²⁸  You have been maddened against me, and your arrogance has ascended to my ears. And so, I will place a ring in your nose, and a bit between your lips. And I will lead you back along the way by which you came.
