2 Samuel 17:12-13

12So we shall come upon him in some place where he is to be found, and we shall light upon him as the dew falls on the ground, and of him and all the men with him not one will be left. 13If he withdraws into a city, then all Israel will bring ropes to that city, and we shall drag it into the valley, until not even a pebble is to be found there.”

2 Kings 19:23-24

23 aBy your messengers you have mocked the Lord,
and you have said, b‘With my many chariots
I have gone up the heights of the mountains,
to the far recesses of cLebanon;
I felled its tallest cedars,
its choicest cypresses;
I entered its farthest lodging place,
its most dfruitful forest.
24I dug wells
and drank foreign waters,
and I dried up with the sole of my foot
all the streams eof Egypt.’

Isaiah 10:13-14

13 fFor he says:

“By the strength of my hand I have done it,
and by my wisdom, for I have understanding;
I remove the boundaries of peoples,
and plunder their treasures;
like a bull I bring down those who sit on thrones.
14My hand has found like a nest
the wealth of the peoples;
and as one gathers eggs that have been forsaken,
so I have gathered all the earth;
and there was none that moved a wing
or opened the mouth or chirped.”

Isaiah 37:24-25

24By your servants you have mocked the Lord,
and you have said, gWith my many chariots
I have gone up the heights of the mountains,
to the far recesses of Lebanon,
hto cut down its tallest cedars,
its choicest cypresses,
to come to its remotest height,
its most fruitful forest.
25I dug wells
and drank waters,
to dry up with the sole of my foot
all ithe streams jof Egypt.
