2 Kings 19:14-20

14Then 1Hezekiah took the 2letter from the hand of the messengers and read it, and he went up to the house of the Lord and 3spread it out before the Lord. 15Hezekiah prayed before the Lord and said, “O Lord, the God of Israel, 4who are 5enthroned above the cherubim, 6You are the God, You alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth. 167Incline Your ear, O Lord, and hear; 8open Your eyes, O Lord, and see; and listen to the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent 9to reproach the living God. 17Truly, O Lord, the kings of Assyria have devastated the nations and their lands 18and have cast their gods into the fire, 10for they were not gods but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone. So they have destroyed them. 19Now, O Lord our God, I pray, deliver us from his hand 11that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that You alone, O 12Lord, are God.”

20Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah saying, “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘Because you have prayed to Me about Sennacherib king of Assyria, 13I have heard you.’
