2:13 for all the cedars of Lebanon,
that are so high and mighty,
for all the oaks of Bashan; 1
2:14 for all the tall mountains,
for all the high hills, 2
2:15 for every high tower,
for every fortified wall,
1 sn The cedars of Lebanon and oaks of Bashan were well-known for their size and prominence. They make apt symbols here for powerful men who think of themselves as prominent and secure.
2 sn The high mountains and hills symbolize the apparent security of proud men, as do the high tower and fortified wall of v. 15.
