The virgin daughter of Zion;
She has shaken her head behind you,
The daughter of Jerusalem!

And haughtily lifted up your eyes?
Against the Holy One of Israel!

I came up to the heights of the mountains,
To the remotest parts of Lebanon;

And with the sole of my feet I dried up
All the rivers of Egypt.”

And I will turn you back by the way which you came. ‘Then this shall be the sign for you: you will eat this year what grows of itself, in the second year what springs from the same, and in the third year sow, reap, plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.

And keener than wolves in the evening.

He acted very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites had done, whom the Lord cast out before the sons of Israel.
