2 Chronicles 32:2-8
2Now when HezekiahH2396 sawH7200 that SennacheribH5576 had comeH935 and that 1he intendedH6440 to make warH4421 on JerusalemH3389, 3he decidedH3289 with his officersH8269 and his warriorsH1368 to cutH5640 offH5640 the supply of waterH4325 from the springsH5871 whichH834 were outsideH4480H2351 the cityH5892, and they helpedH5826 him. 4So manyH7227 peopleH5971 assembledH6908 2and stoppedH5640 up allH3605 the springsH4599 and 3the streamH5158 which flowedH7857 4throughH8432 the regionH776, sayingH559, “WhyH4100 should the kingsH4428 of AssyriaH804 comeH935 and findH4672 abundantH7227 waterH4325?” 5And he tookH2388 courageH2388 and 5rebuiltH1129 allH3605 the wallH2346 that had been brokenH6555 downH6555 and 6erectedH5927 towersH4026 on it, and built 7anotherH312 outsideH2351 wallH2346 and strengthenedH2388 the 8MilloH4407 in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, and madeH6213 weaponsH7973 and shieldsH4043 in greatH7230 numberH7230. 6He appointedH5414 militaryH4421 officersH8269 overH5921 the peopleH5971 and gatheredH6908 them to him in the squareH7339 at the cityH5892 gateH8179, and 9spokeH1696 10encouraginglyH5921H3824 to them, sayingH559, 7“11Be strongH2388 and courageousH553, do not fearH3372 or be dismayedH2865 becauseH4480H6440 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 nor becauseH4480H6440 of allH3605 the hordeH1995 that is with him; 12for the one with us is greaterH7227 thanH4480 the one with him. 8With him is only 13an armH2220 of fleshH1320, but 14with us is the LordH3068 our GodH430 to helpH5826 us and to fightH3898 our battlesH4421.” And the peopleH5971 reliedH5564 on the wordsH1697 of HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063.
