Isaiah 37:14-20

14Hezekiah took the letter from the messengers, read it, and went to the Lord’s temple. He spread it out in front of the Lord

15and prayed to the Lord,

16“Lord of Armies, God of Israel, you are enthroned over the angels. You alone are God of the kingdoms of the world. You made heaven and earth.

17Turn your ear toward me, Lord, and listen. Open your eyes, Lord, and see. Listen to the entire message that Sennacherib sent to defy the living God.

18It is true, Lord, that the kings of Assyria have leveled every country.

19They have thrown the gods from these countries into fires because these gods aren’t real gods. They’re only wooden and stone statues made by human hands. So the Assyrians have destroyed them.

20Now, Lord our God, rescue us from Assyria’s control so that all the kingdoms on earth will know that you alone are the Lord.”
