nestled among the cedars,
how you will groan when labor pains come on you,

you who occupy the mountain summit,
though you elevate your nest like the eagle,
even from there I will bring you down.
This is the Lord’s declaration.

wealth for his house
to place his nest on high,
to escape from the reach of disaster!
