Isaiah 10:33-34

33 Behold, the Lord God of hosts
^awill lop ^bthe boughs with terrifying power;
the great in height will be hewn down,
and the lofty will be brought low.
34 He will cut down ^cthe thickets of the forest with an axe,
and ^dLebanon will fall by the Majestic One.

Isaiah 27:10-11

10 ^eFor the fortified city is solitary,
a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness;
there the calf grazes;
there it lies down and strips its branches.
11 When its boughs are dry, they are broken;
women come and make a fire of them.
^fFor this is a people without discernment;
therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them;
he who formed them will show them no favor.

Isaiah 37:24

24 By 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.

Jeremiah 21:14

14 ⁱI will punish you according to ^jthe fruit of your deeds,

declares the Lord;
^kI will kindle a fire in her forest,
^land it shall devour all that is around her.”

Zechariah 11:1

The Flock Doomed to Slaughter

1 Open your doors, ^mO Lebanon,
that the fire may devour your cedars!
