2 Chronicles 32:9-17
9After this did SennacheribH5576 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 sendH7971 his servantsH5650 to JerusalemH3389 (now he was before LachishH3923, and all his power with him), unto HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and unto all JudahH3063 that were at JerusalemH3389, sayingH559, 10ThusH3541 saith SennacheribH5576 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, Whereon do ye trustH982, that ye abide the siegeH4692 in JerusalemH3389? 11Doth not HezekiahH2396 persuade you, to giveH5414 you over to dieH4191 by famineH7458 and by thirstH6772, sayingH559, Jehovah our GodH430 will deliverH5337 us out of the handH3709 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804? 12Hath not the same HezekiahH2396 taken awayH5493 his highH1116 placesH1116 and his altarsH4196, and commanded JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389, sayingH559, Ye shall worship before oneH259 altarH4196, and upon it shall ye burn incenseH6999? 13KnowH3045 ye not what I and my fathersH1 have done unto all the peoplesH5971 of the landsH776? Were the godsH430 of the nationsH1471 of the landsH776 in any wise ableH3201 to deliverH5337 their landH776 out of my handH3027? 14Who was there among all the godsH430 of those nationsH1471 which my fathersH1 utterly destroyed, that could deliverH5337 his peopleH5971 out of my handH3027, that your GodH430 should be ableH3201 to deliverH5337 you out of my handH3027? 15NowH6258 thereforeH6258 let not HezekiahH2396 deceiveH5377 you, nor persuade you after this manner, neither believeH539 ye him; for no godH430 of any nationH1471 or kingdomH4467 was ableH3201 to deliverH5337 his peopleH5971 out of my handH3027, and out of the handH3027 of my fathersH1: how much less shall your GodH430 deliverH5337 you out of my handH3027?
16And his servantsH5650 spake yetH5750 more against Jehovah GodH430, and against his servantH5650 HezekiahH2396. 17He wroteH3789 also lettersH5612, to rail on Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and to speak against him, sayingH559, As the godsH430 of the nationsH1471 of the landsH776, which have not deliveredH5337 their peopleH5971 out of my handH3027, soH3651 shall not the GodH430 of HezekiahH2396 deliverH5337 his peopleH5971 out of my handH3027.
