2 Chronicles 32:2-7

2When HezekiahH2396 sawH7200 thatH3588 SennacheribH5576H6440 had comeH935 to make warH4421 againstH5921 JerusalemH3389, 3he consultedH3289 withH5973 his leadersH8269 and mighty menH1368 about stopping upH5640 the watersH4325 of the springsH5869 outsideH2351 the cityH5892, and they helped him carry it outH5826. 4ManyH7227 peopleH5971 assembledH6908 and stoppedH5640 up allH3605 the springsH4599 and the streamH5158 that flowedH7857 throughH8432 the landH776. “WhyH4100 should the kingsH44281 of AssyriaH804 comeH935 and findH4672 plentyH7227 of waterH4325?” they saidH559.

5Then Hezekiah worked resolutelyH2388 to rebuildH1129 allH3605 the broken sections ofH6555 the wallH2346 and to raise upH5927H5921 towersH4026 on it. He also built anH312 outerH2351 wallH2346 and reinforcedH2388 the supporting terracesH44072 of the CityH5892 of DavidH1732, and he producedH6213 an abundance ofH7230 weaponsH7973 and shieldsH4043.

6Hezekiah appointedH5414 militaryH4421 commandersH8269 overH5921 the peopleH5971 and gatheredH6908 the people inH413 the squareH7339 of the cityH5892 gateH8179. Then he encouragedH1696H5921 themH3824, sayingH559, 7“Be strongH2388 and courageousH553! Do notH408 be afraidH3372H408 or discouragedH2865 beforeH6440 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 and the vast armyH1995 with himH5973, forH3588 there is a greaterH7227 One with usH5973 than with himH5973.
