But you said, ‘I will not hear.’
aThis has been your manner from your youth,
That you did not obey My voice.
And your lovers shall go into captivity;
Surely then you will be ashamed and humiliated
For all your wickedness.
Making your nest in the cedars,
How gracious will you be when pangs come upon you,
Like athe pain of a woman in labor?

Jeremiah 22:23
Lebanon - Jerusalem is called an inhabitant of Lebanon, because their houses were built of wood cut down out of the forest of Lebanon. Cedars - Their houses were built of the Cedars of Lebanon. How gracious - What favour wilt thou find when my judgments come upon thee, as the pains of a woman in travail come upon her.
