2 Kings 19:20-28
20Then IsaiahH3470 the sonH1121 of AmozH531 sentH7971 to HezekiahH2396, sayingH559, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, Whereas thou hast prayedH6419 to me against SennacheribH5576 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, I have heardH8085 thee. 21This is the wordH1697 that Jehovah hath spokenH1696 concerning him: The virginH1330 daughterH1323 of ZionH6726 hath despisedH959 thee and laughed thee to scorn; the daughterH1323 of JerusalemH3389 hath shakenH5128 her headH7218 at thee. 22Whom hast thou defied and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exaltedH7311 thy voiceH6963 and liftedH5375 up thine eyesH5869 on highH4791? even against the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478. 23By thy messengersH4397 thou hast defied the LordH136, and hast saidH559, With the multitude of my chariotsH7393 am I comeH935 up to the heightH6967 of the mountainsH2022, to the innermostH3411 partsH3411 of LebanonH3844; and I will cutH3772 down the tall cedarsH730 thereof, and the choice fir-trees thereof; and I will enter into his farthest lodging-place, the forestH3293 of his fruitful field. 24I have digged and drunkH8354 strangeH2114 watersH4325, and with the soleH3709 of my feet will I dryH2717 up all the riversH2975 of EgyptH4693.
25Hast thou not heardH8085 how I have done it long ago, and formedH3335 it of ancient times? nowH6258 have I broughtH935 it to pass, that it should beH1961 thine to lay waste fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892 into ruinous heapsH1530. 26Therefore their inhabitantsH3427 wereH1961 of small power, they wereH1961 dismayedH2865 and confounded; they wereH1961 as the grassH2682 of the fieldH7704, and as the green herb, as the grassH2682 on the housetops, and as grainH7054 blasted before it is grown up. 27But I knowH3045 thy sittingH3427 downH3427, and thy goingH3318 out, and thy comingH935 in, and thy ragingH7264 against me. 28Because of thy ragingH7264 against me, and because thine arrogancy is comeH935 up into mine earsH241, therefore will I putH7760 my hookH2397 in thy noseH639, and my bridleH4964 in thy lipsH8193, and I will turnH7725 thee backH7725 by the wayH1870 by which thou camest.
