By thy messengers thou hast defied the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains, to the innermost parts of Lebanon; and I will cut down the tall cedars thereof, and the choice fir-trees thereof; and I will enter into his farthest lodging-place, the forest of his fruitful field.

You have sent your servants with evil words against the Lord, and have said, With all my war-carriages I have come up to the top of the mountains, to the inmost parts of Lebanon; its tall cedars will be cut down, and the best trees of its woods; I will come up into his highest places, into his thick woods.

Τον Κυριον ωνειδισας δια των πρεσβεων σου και ειπας, Με το πληθος των αμαξων μου ανεβην εγω εις το υψος των ορεων, εις τα πλευρα του Λιβανου· και θελω κοψει τας υψηλας κεδρους αυτου, τας εκλεκτας ελατους αυτου· και θελω εισελθει εις τα εσχατα οικηματα αυτου, εις το δασος του Καρμηλου αυτου·

By thy messengers thou hast reproached the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots I am come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon, and will cut down the tall cedar trees thereof, and the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the lodgings of his borders, and into the forest of his Carmel.
