2 Kings 19:20-37
20And IsaiahH3470 the sonH1121 of AmozH531 sentH7971 to HezekiahH2396, sayingH559, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah the 1GodH430 of IsraelH3478: That which thou hast prayedH6419 to me concerningH413 SennacheribH5576 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 I have heardH8085. 21This is the wordH1697 that Jehovah has spokenH1696 against him: The virgin-daughter of ZionH6726 despiseth thee, laugheth thee to scorn; The daughterH1323 of JerusalemH3389 shaketh her headH7218 at thee. 22Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exaltedH7311 the voiceH6963? Against the HolyH6918 oneH6918 of IsraelH3478 hast thou liftedH5375 up thine eyesH5869 on highH4791. 23By thy messengersH4397 thou hast reproached the LordH136, and hast saidH559, With the multitude of my chariotsH7393 have I comeH935 up To the heightH6967 of the mountainH2022, to the recesses of LebanonH3844, And I will cutH3772 down its tall cedarsH730, the choice of its cypressesH1265; And I will enter into its furthest lodging-place, [into] the forestH3293 of its fruitful field. 24I have digged, and have drunkH8354 strangeH2114 watersH4325, And with the soleH3709 of my feet have I dried up all the streams of Matsor. 25Hast thou not heardH8085 long ago that I have done it? And that from ancient daysH3117 I formedH3335 it? NowH6258 have I broughtH935 it to pass, that thou shouldest lay waste fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892 [into] ruinous heapsH1530. 26And their inhabitantsH3427 wereH1961 powerless, They wereH1961 dismayedH2865 and putH954 to shameH954; They wereH1961 [as] the growing grassH2682, and [as] the green herb, [As] the grassH2682 on the housetops, and grainH7054 blighted before it beH1961 grown up. 27But I knowH3045 thine abode, and thy goingH3318 out, and thy comingH935 in, And thy ragingH7264 against me. 28Because thy ragingH7264 against me and thine arroganceH7600 is comeH935 up into mine earsH241, I will putH7760 my ring in thy noseH639, and my bridleH4964 in thy lipsH8193, And I will makeH7760 thee goH935 backH7725 by the wayH1870 by which thou camest. 29And this [shall be] the signH226 unto thee: They shall eatH398 this yearH8141 such as groweth of itself, And in the secondH8145 yearH8141 that which springeth of the same; But in the thirdH7992 yearH8141 sowH2232 ye and reapH7114, And plantH5193 vineyardsH3754 and eatH398 the fruitH6529 thereof. 30And the remnantH7604 that is escapedH6413 of the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 Shall again take rootH8328 downwardH4295, and bear fruitH6529 upwardH4605; 31For out of JerusalemH3389 shall goH3318 forthH3318 a remnantH7611, And out of mount ZionH6726 they that escapeH6413: The zealH7068 of Jehovah [of hosts] shall do this. 32ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saith Jehovah concerning the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804: He shall not comeH935 into this cityH5892, Nor shootH3384 an arrowH2671 there, Nor comeH935 before it with shieldH4043, Nor cast a bank against it. 33By the wayH1870 that he cameH935, by the same shall he returnH7725, And shall not comeH935 into this cityH5892, saith Jehovah. 34And I will defendH1598 this cityH5892, to saveH3467 it, For mine own sakeH4616, and for my servantH5650 David's sakeH4616. 35And it came to pass that nightH3915, that an angelH4397 of Jehovah wentH3318 forthH3318, and smote in the campH4264 of the Assyrians a hundredH3967 and eighty-fiveH8084 thousandH505. And when they arose earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, behold, they wereH1961 all deadH4191 bodies. 36And SennacheribH5576 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 departedH5265, and wentH7725 and returnedH7725, and abode at NinevehH5210. 37And it came to pass, as he wasH1961 worshipping in the houseH1004 of NisrochH5268 his 2godH430, that AdrammelechH152 and SharezerH8272 [his sonsH1121] smote him with the swordH2719; and they escapedH4422 into the landH776 of AraratH780. And Esarhaddon his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
